    Ford's financial contribution to and relationship with M-Sport in recent years can't have been as insignificant as some have made out if they really did "fully fund" the development of the new car. That must have been a fair chunk of cash if true.

    Now they have big mouth like they are deserved for this, but when comes to money they don't want to even hear anything at all.

    Disgusting to take credit now when M-Sport have won everything in this season without Ford.

    If Ford did fund the development of the car then M-Sport have won nothing this season without Ford.

    OK then why the hell did Ford not come back officially if they were 'fully-funding' the 2017 car ? I think fully-funding is a big statement and we need more confirmation.

    MW has always said how M-Sport designed and built the car and never gave any indication that Ford provided anything but the bare shells and some technical assistance.

    Ford probably didn't even donour the cars either. It's like in big companies when some engineer solve some issue and then leaders brag about their work how they are solve anything...

    How M-Sport had new Fiesta shape? Who paid the entry fee to WRC manufacters?

    Ok, less than we like, but Ford support exists. And i remember, even before VW pulls out, 2018 as rumoured date to Ford comeback.
