M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

Pontus is also quite big news, lets see if he does a good job of stepping up and then if he can get sponsorship to do the full season...

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Looking on his website Pontus has many, many different sponsors.

Actually they seem to be small and medium businesses, not the big investors Ericsson had in F1, which eventually bought Sauber. Tidemand announcement sounds more to be a deal for Rally Sweden that somehow was extended to MC, rather than a full season campaign.
Anyway, having him doing more events would certainly be great as he’s really talented. Fingers crossed for him.

I believe they haven´t updated his website. Still Even management appears.

Would be delighted if some really big sponsors show up on an upgraded site...

M-Sport changed to Sachs ZF.

i could be wrong but i remember ogier using two different damper suppliers. one for tarmac and other for gravel.

Ogier used Sachs from Finland until the end of the season on all gravel events and Reiger on tarmac, the funny thing is there were rumours Citroen tested on Reiger with Ogier in their pre Monte tests but I don`t know if it`s true or not BR21 might know more.

Yes, Citroen with Ogier tested different dampers, Reigers for sure also. Last season they were using Citroen Racing/Ohlins product. I think still not sure what they will finally choose.
M-Sport working more with ZF might be really interesting, if they change a little bit the mindset about car behavior they can really win a lot with this cooperation I believe.
