Spaniard Solans began the ERC season with a stylish win at Rally Serras de Fafe - Felgueiras - Cabreira e Boticas but was then unable to land the finance needed to contest the 56th Azores Rallye two weeks later.
And Solans has now been forced to mount another battle to attract the necessary financial support in order to be at the start at Rally Islas Canarias, round three of the season from 12-14 May.
“Right now I don’t have the budget to go to Canary Islands but I’m working really hard to find it although, for the moment, it’s impossible for me to go to this rally,” said Solans, who turned 30 earlier this month. “Everything is booked with the team to join the rally but I still need half of the budget and it’s very difficult to find it. I am talking to people, it looks like we’re not going there but it’s still not closed and I’m fighting to go there.
