Solberg gives Schumi 'secret' ride in his Impreza.

2003 World Rally champion, Petteไr Solberg has given F1 super star, Michael Schumacher the thrill of his life, after the German asked the Norwegian for a ride in his Subaru Impreza ꦰWRC.

Speaking to British newspaper, The Times, 'Hollywood', who has become friends with the Ferrari driver during his winter holiday in Norway, said that Schumi got out the car 'jumpꦗing up and dඣown like crazy'.

The British broadsheet reports that the 'secre🗹t' ride took place during winter testing on the Norway-Sweden border, and💛 that the drive on sheet ice impressed the six times F1 world champion.

"Michael came up for about three hours," Solberg told the newspaper, "He loved it. He wanted to know all about the set-up and my technique. Trouble is, I never think abou♚t my technique. I just do it.

"Then we went out in the car. I did not ♛hold back. My feet were going like drumsticks on the pedals. It was quite a run - 26km, no pace notes and some big jumps, all a🧜t maximum attack.

"He ♚looked as if he enjoyed it. He got out of the car and was jumping up and down l🗹ike crazy."

So will Schumi now return the favour and give the Norwegi🏅an a ride in a two-seater F1 car? Or would Solberg like a go in an F1 car himself, and following in the footsteps of Colin McRae and Tommi Makinen, who have also done one-off 'tests'?

"I would love to have a go in aܫn F1 car. Why not?" added 'Hollywood', "but I have to say I h♈ave no clue how to drive a single-seater.

"I was offered a chaওnce to race for Renault in 𓆏1996 but my rallying took off then. To be honest, I like rallying better. Formula One is not really my thing."

Could BAR offer him such a chance? If your readingꦆ David Richards - BAR boss, and founder of Prodrive, the company that runs the Subaru World Ral𝔉ly Team, it wouldn't be a bad bit of PR...
