Craig Breen returns to World Rally Championship action this afternoon.
After a poor result at Rally Sweden in February, the Slieverue man will be looking to make an impression in Croatia.
Breen has only previously hit the start line in the Baltic state once in the WRC, finishing eighth last year for Hyundai.
The Waterford man currently sits seventh in the world championship standings with his Ford M-Sport teammates Sebastien Loeb and Gus Greensmith in third and fourth.
This weekend teams will tackle some 300 km of track with a complete tarmac surface from start to finish - the first of its kind in four years of competition.
The first stage will be underway tomorrow morning from 7.30 am Irish time and Breen will be the fifth car on the course
