Henning Solberg secures Focus drive for 2005.
H🐈enning Solberg ൩has secured a part season in a 'works-assisted' Ford Focus WRC.
According to reports by the official WRC website, the deal will see him compete iꩵn seven of the 16 events in 2005, beginning with the Swedish Rally in February, round two of the championship.
