    If You mean the aitflow inlets, they're not the pioneers - it was VW already before 2017 concept becomes reality used for years, then Hyundai copied them and so the M-Sport. Polo '17 had already bigger of those, but didn't used them at full capacity in the test before pulling the plug, it was the Yaris who opened the whole package. We should give all the credits to the village team for the side mirrors design though.... and for the ugliest rear wing I've ever seen

    Fully agreed with the rear wing, it has tough competition in ugliness from the Mitsubishi Lancer WRC 05 though (or in Lancers case mostly the placing was odd)

    Presumably its effective, because it obviously hasn't been designed for looks!

    New rear aero package will only be used by Ogier in Finland, according to M-Sport press release, where only new rear bumper and rear diffuser are mentioned:
    http://m-sport.co.uk/m-sport-news/fi...nland-take-off

    Autosport interviews Ogier about the new package....and they talk also of a new rear wing:

    And this is our (WRCWings) review of the modifications:
