M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

[Simmi]

Not sure whether this was public knowledge until now - but M-Sport will be running a new model Ford car in 2017. And given the cars don't exist yet they can't start testing the exact spec. I'd assume it will be the new shape Fiesta?

I'm hopeful that this, in addition to the work M-Sport did on the Focus RS RX, means they are moving back closer to Ford Performance.

I hope they build a complete new chassis for Mads, and are able to tweek the software back to a level where the downshifts are working again.

Their drivers need a car they can trust will do what they give it input to do, and not just hoping for the best!
I think all Fiesta drivers have the same issues, they just dont tell it on the radio/tv.

Happy to humour you all!
But as the cars are now, I think they will be better off with a manual secuential box!
they are infantery proofed, and trustable.

I am not saying the Fords will win rallies due to this, but for sure higher up than now.

Mads was 4th in the 2015 WDC means he can do the job in a decent car.

And he's still lying 3rd in 2016 despite everything !

Camilli has a two-year deal and M-Sport have first option in 2018. That's all public knowledge.

In M-Sport nothing is certain.

Camilli showed some impressive progress in last two events. He obviously has a good head, the pressure on him after the start of the season must have been pretty intense, yet he didn't break and did some good, consistent and not entirely slow driving in Argentina and Portugal.
