Team Principal Rich Millener confessed it was too early to tell what had caused the fire but said the impact of losing a World Rally Car would be deeply felt by M-Sport.
“Well we don’t really know much to be honest, we’re still in a bit of shock to be fair,” Millener said. “Losing a car is never nice to see for any team but that’s going to ask some serious questions of us for the remainder of the year.”
“It’s no secret that this loss will really have a big impact on M-Sport – and we don’t know when the championship will resume which makes the situation really difficult right now. But despite all of this and all of the repercussions, the most important thing is that everyone is safe and unharmed.” Millener added.Last edited by Fast Eddie WRC; 20th March 2020 at 18:37.

To be fair, Millener may have been talking with the wider circumstances in which this happened in mind. Losing an €800,000 car is one thing, losing an €800,000 car just ahead of losing a large part of your business' income (service and sales) for the foreseeable future is another.

for how much do they sell those fiestas,
if they actually cost them 800k to build, they would have to sell them for over a million.

It must be some internal parts possible to be reused in that car, isn´t it? I was thinking of engine, gearbox inner parts.
Or was it a total waste of that car? Anyone?"Reis vas pät pat kaar vas kut"
