Footage from the Solberg Extreme MotorShow which saw Andreas Mikkelsen, driving a Ford Focus, win the WRC category in front of a crowd of fifteen thousand spectators at the Telenor Arena, which is situated near Oslo, Norway.

Mikkelsen defeated Anders Grondal's Subaru Impreza WRC S10 in the final of the Race of Champions-esque event.

Rally stars taking part included; Marcus Grönholm, Tommi Mäkinen, Mikko Hirvonen, Henning and Petter Solberg, Gigi Galli, Mads Östberg and Andreas Mikkelsen among others.

Rallycross stars competing were; Andreas Erikkson, Per Eklund, Martin Schanche, Tommy Rustad, Eivind Opland etc etc.

Peter Solberg was out in his newly converted 450 BHP Citroen Xsara WRC and Norwegian fans also got their first taste of a Formula 1 car driving in their country when a 2005 Ferrari did some demos for the crowd.

As a result of the show's success, the Solberg brothers want to make the meeting an annual affair.
