Petter and Henning Solberg to take up cudgels in end-of-season spectacular.

Although Petter has suffered a tough season in the works Subaru, brother Henning - a five-time Norwegian national rally champion - has surpassed expectation as part of the Stobart M-Sport Ford team. Neither Solberg has contested the RoC before, and become the second set of brothers to compete, after Colin and Alister McRae both made the final in 1998. Ironically, the 2007 event is set to mark the untimely passing of the elder McRae, following his tragic helicopter crash earlier this year.

“It's a great honour to be invited and to represent Norway together with my brother,” said Henning, “It's going to be lots of fun.”
