The redundancies may have been in their other programme's but the rally side has also lost a huge amount of income - for months no-one was having them run their cars, or was buying cars and parts.

yes, sales of new cars almost died completely, rebuilds of used ones also, this I know from my experience.
orders for Rally4 cars were also mainly the ones placed before those crazy times
