Anyone know if/when a Mk8 Fiesta R5 is coming ?
Seems strange when the WRC Mk8 car has already been out nearly two years...

`How competitive will the Polo be out of the box in Spain?
Will it be on level with the Fabia?
Will be surprised if there are no reliability issues, but lets see.

Maybe there will be some niggles but it should be fast and reliable out of the box. The Fabia was pretty good from the start and VW had the added advantage of Skoda's R5 knowledge as a base to work from. Originally Posted by Sulland

Aero can't be much different, as in R5 it's very limited. Engine will be totally different, as based on different standard engine. Will be more powerful. Other main components similar - Life Racing electronics, Sadev transmission, Reiger dampers... Car will be lighter than current model. Original plan was to release car in March 2019, for the moment it's delayed, maybe until autumn 2019. Originally Posted by NoName

Except Mikulas only Rallysprint Kopna. He was very close to start on Barum Rally with VW Polo R5, but it was not homologated in time. There were some negotiations about start with C3 R5, but there...
