    Is the Fiesta not going as fast, or have M-Sport sorted their front aero better ?
    Regarding the earlier discussion about the more developed front aero on the 2017 Fiesta WRC... this quote from Autosport today:

    "Wilson's 2017 Fiesta has already gained credit from industry insiders."

    "Drivers such as Mattias Ekstrom - a man who has lived and worked in the high downforce DTM world for the last 16 years - called Cumbria to heap praise on Wilson's work and apparent aero expertise."

    Autosport are automatic grovelling fans of anything British aren't they though? Probably just published an M-sport press release.

    (tongue in cheek but they do have a bit of bias there)

    The biggest difference at the front seems to be the diveplanes (below the headlights). As far as I know that's an important element to provide a fair amount of downforce for not so much extra drag. DTM and WEC cars have those elements but I haven't seen them on the other '17 cars yet.
