That's sounds logical to me, but it brings the question, why do WRC? Why winning manu titles? I guess WRC title will sell more cars, but it could do a lot more, that's for sure.Quote:

Wonder if Ford will maybe also produce a Group N Focus from the new RS?
Can't as RS will have 2.5 litre engine.Quote:

Aren't Subaru also using a 2.5 litre engine these days?
