M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

[Rallyper]

Yeah, sure their cash flow is very positive at the moment. Let´s hope it stays that way. Kubica of course brings his money as well. I would say the situation for M-Sport looks very bright for now and the near future.

I'm sure I read somewhere that approx 60 Fiesta R5 cars have been ordered at nearly £200k each. That and the other bits and bobs they're getting will be enough to tie them over I'm sure. Long term though, they definitely need a committed sponsor.

Their wesite still called 'Qatar' M-Sport: http://www.qatarmsportwrt.com/ but updated now with M-Sport logos:
Team Principal, Malcolm Wilson OBE, said:

"I'm very happy to reveal the new 2014 livery for the M-Sport World Rally Team. There has been a lot of hard work to get to this point, and I need to commend the efforts of every single member of our dedicated team.

"I am also delighted to announce that we will continue our long and successful partnership with our team partners, Castrol and Michelin, as well as our valued trade partners. We also continue our excellent working relationship with the Ford Motor Company whose invaluable technical support continues to aid M-Sport in the design and development of our award-winning range of Fiesta rally cars."

How worse would it be for M-Sport's business not to have a top manufacturer team in WRC? Probably it's better for them to put or renounce at some money in the WRC team and still be attractive to top potential customers.

I've noted that the Fiesta RS WRC tested was the new nose version of the Fiesta, but it doesn't appear in Monte Carlo. Is M-Sport saving the evolution for later?

The test car is a old one with new front. The new front will be used on Portugal.

It looks like it'll probably debut in Portugal.

EDIT: too slow :P
