No way this time.

I'd be surprised if they couldn't fix that.

Nope. Will never happen. Don´t dare bet my shoe, though...

The biggest problem may be the insurance.

There is usually a clause that will only allow one claim per 'event'.

If they have taken separate cover for the test it may be okay. If it's one single policy covering test and rally then that may be a problem.

Apparently yes.

Seems like gone end over end, the front and back are smashed in, but not the roof. Ylivaa facebook has more pics.

M-Sport usually self-insure: they don't have external insurance as it's too expensive.

THat's well known from when they lose a car to fire: that's a catastrophe as it's a total loss. EVen the worst accident can still salvage lots of value.

They save Fiesta from that year when Tanak drove crash into water completely. And he still race that weekend.

But if the rollcage/bodyshell is too badly damaged, they need to take the car back to Cumbria to fix it.

But this is effectively a 'customer' entry. That car will have gone nowhere without insurance cover.
