That bit of red looks good and will help with ident.
Can someone tell us more about this Jocius dude? So strange he's come from virtually nowhere to an extensive programme in a World Rally Car..
Has he even started a WRC event before?
Is he a rich businessman, or?
Is he doing the full championship? I did see he had multiple tests in the Fiesta already on different surfaces..
5 WRC starts before

Well, as I wrote before in other thread, he is quite fast on national level on gravel in Baltics, had some good results, but unfortunately has tendency to crash, as other member of this forum Sindroms said "less skilled version of Lukyanuk" . About rich businessman I don't know, I guess not, but I don't know really. Last 10 years there are always rumors about money troubles for him, as you can see here https://www.ewrc-results.com/profile...ividas-jocius/ only few rallies per season, changing co-drives ( I think some was like sponsors). There also was rumors about test with Citroen (10-12 year ago), and bringing WRC car to Lithuania, but that never happen, and nobody saw that Citroen. Also he said himself, that there was agreement to M-sport, for last year to drive Ford, but in 2018 autumn he had major crash with broken 13 bones, including both wrists, and after 3,5 month he did Monte with R2, because after crash plans was changed. Don't know about full season, but I guess some gravel rallies for sure. I hope he will did well, could shine in few stages on gravel, I think, and I hope it will be good impact for rallying in Lithuania. There also is article in Italian: https://www.rallyssimo.it/2020/01/16...R51Rf4-_AljCkk
Thanks for the info, looks like his money troubles are over!
