Good for M-sport, drivers and fans!
But, Ford going to "marketing" a model they don't sell anymore?
Or have Ford a new model in pipeline, in some years to come?

They even didn’t added the new facelift Fiesta to Rally cars.

So what next for M-Sport after the “years to come”? What then?
If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

With this announcement it feels even more that Ford doesn't care what is happening in WRC. For a car brand it makes no sense to promote a car that is not available in their lineup. Today it is okay-ish to drive with them but in "years to come". Seriously?

Rumoured to be the Puma.
The road car is on the Fiesta platform so not that different in chassis terms. But getting that taller bodyshell to work as a rally car will take some doing. Having said that it's only 1cm higher than the Citroen C3 and that has made a decent Rally2 car...

With Ford's difficult financial position and the switch to an all-electric lineup of road cars, it makes sense to hold fire before committing to a new Rally2 car. Also the possible change in regulations to hybrid is another factor.

Yup, only the prototype showed in Goodwood was Fiesta that looked like Puma, but final car is something else... Still probably similar tho

Hyundai's poor reliability can make him or break him as well. Even though I must say that all Hyundais were almost perfect in Portugal.
