Solberg and co-driver Ilka Minor posted their third top six result of the year in France and will be looking to go even better on Rally de Espana - providing there are no problems with his car.

"I really enjoyed Spain last year in the Ford Fiesta S2000, I wasn’t looking forward to the mix of surfaces but I actually really enjoyed it," said Solberg, who finished first in class and eighth overall in the Ford Fiesta S2000 at last year’s event in Spain.

"Before the end of the season I want to finish in the top five again and I felt we were getting closer and closer to achieving that in France.

"We need to find a consistent pace for each stage next week, and of course we need to keep the car out of trouble.

"When we have no problems in the car I feel I can push more than I could in the Ford Focus RS WRC."
