And Fabia, well, it has always been a reliable car, with most "decent" teams, retirements are very rare, there aren't so much to mention.Quote:

I see teams selling blank, evo1, evo2.
Is new mk8 then evo3?
You can name it whatever you want. Until now there is only one homologation - Ford Fiesta R5. We will see how they will name this brand new Fiesta.
M-Sport is the first team to make a second R5 car, being based on the newest version of its road-car.
Therefore the Mk8 Fiesta R5 isnt an 'evolution'.
Citroen has both DS3 and C3, Skoda has two Fabia versionsQuote:
