Ford of Europe has today announced that it will withdraw from the FIA World Rally Championship as a title sponsor after the 2012 season.
"Ford has a long and proud history in the WRC and this was not an easy decision," said Roelant de Waard, vice president, Marketing, Sales and Service, Ford of Europe. "We have great respect for M-Sport and Malcolm Wilson, who have run the Ford WRC team since 1997, and there is no organisation with more expertise and commitment to winning. Working together, we have reached a point where the Ford Fiesta has become the car of choice in rallying, and we want to see this continue in the future."
Ford WRC wishes to thank its fans, drivers, the FIA and its many WRC partners, including team main sponsors BP and Castrol, for their support and commitment.

A Mini-Prodrive thing all over again... Hope it does not end up as badly as that one
the only postive is maybe Castrol and bp want to continue with another team.
so Jari at vw ,Petter???Mads? Maybe the reason Prokop sold his fiesta...
Castrol and BP will go wherever Ford tell them to go. If that means stay with M-sPort, then that is what will happen.
Wow back to a two manufacture race just as things were looking up with coverage and other manus entering. Shocked
I'm pissed.
Wasn t a 2 year deal with M-sport last year?
Like I said a few days ago - there are always ways out of things. Performance related clauses being a key one...Quote:
