Millener after Mexico 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.”

who told you that at Msport the cost is 800.000?

The cost of new hybrid WRC cars threatens to price young drivers out of the top of the sport, Malcolm Wilson has warned.

As it stands, each of the new generation of cars will cost around €1m (£850,000); five times that of a feeder series WRC2 car, according to the M-Sport boss.

That’s the retail price, not the price to build one

They were really troubled just losing Lappi's car in Mexico. Then the lockdown - no rallies, no car sales, no parts sales, people made redundant.

If they were to lose or very badly damage two more cars on top of that it would be super-tough for them to continue and justify it, unless Ford put some money in.

You’ve gone from saying it would be impossible for them to continue (which is utter crap) to saying it would be super tough, which is different.

A Fiesta WRC cost of £675,000 was confirmed by M-Sport 2 years ago (€750,000).

UPDATE @thierryneuville
After experiencing some electronic glitches in the Power Stage which didn't allow the engine to run properly the team decided to retire #Neuville's car in the road section to avoid any damage to the engine. #HMSGOfficial #RallyEstonia

So you say M-Sport can sustain any loss and just carry on unaffected.

No. where have I said that?

I said losing two cars wouldn't make it impossible for them to continue.
