Focus WRC Thread

It seems that there are a few new Focus/driver pairings for the first time today in Ireland on the RSMA Rally of 1000 Entries.

Stephen Moore is debuting his new Focus and Maurice Gass is also driving a Focus in todays charity event. Hopefully there should be some pictures up in the new year.

Great news for Ford fans. It seems that the traditional Finnish rally championship opener Arctic Lapland Rally(26.-27.1.2007) will have atleast 1 Focus WRC at the start.
Greek rally driver Ioannis Papadimitriou has registered for the event with his EX02 OBF.

Are the entries closed Jaanus?

[Jaanus]

No they are not, I expect atleast 90 or more entries to the event.

Stephen Moore debuted his new Focus EK52 NWN this weekend entering both the Turkey Run and the Rally of 1000 Entries in Ireland. Fairly nice paint scheme, hoping for some better pictures soon.

Thanks Jaanus, I asked because I expect another Greek too at the event, not with a Ford though.

I am sorry for the off-topic.

'XOK 394' (V9 FMC) is not owned by Mats Jonsson.
Mats drives the car but the owner is Tommy Andersson who also owns 'WOB 099' (S11 FMC).

I have now updated my website with a links page. I have mainly put links there where you can buy or hire Focus WRC cars. If anyone knows any company that rents Focus WRC cars and is missing from my links page, then please let me know.

Hi!

I found an mistake!
X6 FMC: who mostly used the car, he's name is not Gábor Szabó, he is Gergely Szabó. And the the car belongs to him, he bought that in 2004, the BRTH team are just servicing the WRC.

[Jaanus]

I have now corrected the info about V9 FMC and X6 FMC. If there are any more mistakes or any new info or anything else about the owners and drivers of Focus WRC cars just please let me know in this thread or email.
Thanks you very much.
