M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

I think Camilli should do better work in that car. Fiesta WRC'17 better car than the Fiesta RS WRC.

yes, today for sure. I meant that Adrien is less experienced now then Camilli was in 2016, and that was a disaster for M-Sport.

Formaux has very little experience on gravel atm. Most of WRC is gravel..

If the team even gets to the line in 2021 they will be in real trouble.

Shame that it has to go to this that b or even c level drivers are there while much better options on the sidelines.

But, it is what it is when the sport is freaking expensive and not doing well at all.

So Lappi out.
what about the rest of the drivers, and who will come in?

Those that pay.

The economic situation is still not looking good for m-sport, so don't expect them to fund any driver next year.

Does Jouhki pay for Suninen with his own money? One has to wonder why when there is no prospect of any paid drives coming up and Teemu hasn't exactly shown a lot to deserve one either.

That´s true! It´s no sense for Jouhki to invest anymore, because there is probably no places in any team in the future. The only way is that they have a long term agreement with Wilson and Malcolm is still thinking that he can get his share if someone is interested to hire Suninen...

Suninen is certainly not hopeless, and there were drivers at MSport which at some point looked prettty bad and came back - Tanak and Evans. But they were also some that did not like Camilli.

Suninen is pretty good. But not winner atleast yet. Though that Ford at this moment is hopeless. Sad to say, as I personally really like Fords but it just isnt that good.

[AnttiL]

At least Suninen has occasional mojo and speed, consistency comes with time and kilometres.

i feel Lappi is stronger in the psyche than Suninen.
He seems to go down in flames if he makes a small miss.
