    I'm sure this is not unique to the Fiesta Mk2. All buyers evaluate their options and will have done the same with any previous R5.

    Because it´s looks very much same than before you tend to forget that has different homologation numbers than before.
    The exception which proves the rule ...

    Plus Skoda had nothing else to concentrate on, unlike M-Sport who were still developing their WRC car while creating a new R5.

    I really don't know what is your point here. The statement was that the disasterous first outings damaged the M-Sport. That is a fact and there's nothing more to discuss about it.

    i feel I read somewhere that the i20 R5 is overweight, as far as I remember it read almost 100kg fat on it. Could that be true?

    Yep in Autosport too.

    Adamo says their R5 was rushed to market and therefore wasnt competitive with the rival cars. Plus they also had another (TCR) car to produce.

    Sounds familiar..
