IndyCar regular Simon Pagenaud tested Olsbergs MSE's Global Rally Cross Ford Fiesta, Road & Track magazine has revealed.

"What I liked the most is that with this 4wd car, you can have oversteer or understeer, however you want, with the setup," he is quoted saying by the American publication.

"In an Indy car, you can [make] small adjustments in the race, but not like this. It’s very cool."

Having tested 2012 vice-champion Brian Deegan's machine, the 28-year-old Frenchman who lives in Indianapolis is now hoping to get behind the wheel during a race.

"Obviously Global Rally Cross is growing in the US and I’ve always wanted to do the X-Games. It’s good to get some experience and if we can make it happen, I’d love to compete in the X-Games and any other times that are possible."
