Stobart Ford's
Henning Solberg and
Matthew Wilson are both looking to do better in Greece this weekend after pretty lacklustre results on the last event in Sardinia two weeks ago.
Henning, who was having another 'guest' run under the Munchi's banner in Italy, brought his Focus RS WRC07 home in seventh place, but the 'Expert' man wants to break into the top-five this Sunday, something he has only achieved twice this year - in Mexico and Jordan.
His form in Greece though has been good in recent seasons and he was fifth last year and in 2006 with the OMV Peugeot WRT. This will be his fourth outing on the Acropolis.
"I like the rough conditions on this rally and generally enjoy the event; it is very challenging," said the Norwegian, who will once again be nominated to score manufacturers' points for the Ford 'B' team, like team-mate,
Gigi Galli.
"We didn't have a good event in Sardinia and we plan to improve on that pace. The good thing about the next two rallies is that they are close together. Because we don't get testing it takes a while for me to settle into a good rhythm at the start of a rally but with events close together it means we can be faster right from the start.
"So my confidence is better for this rally and I am aiming for a top-five finish. That would be good and would give me some more important points for the championship."
Matthew Wilson also wants to improve on how things went two weeks ago and that shouldn't be difficult as the Rally d'Italia didn't go well, with the Englishman struggling home in twelfth.
He will be in the 'third' car this weekend and as such won't have the pressure of worrying about team points.
"Sardinia wasn't the greatest event for us so in Greece we will look to improve and get back to the pace we had on previous gravel rallies this year. The route it is not much different to last year which is going to be good for us," he added.
