Fiesta Mk2 is good on asphalt, not sure if they are top competitive on gravel yet.
has there been any updates on the gravel kit lately?

I am not so sure if it's generally good on tarmac.

It is good on slippery/wet tarmac on wet michelin tire (which is new itself).

Historically for last 15 years or so MSport cars have seemingly had very good (mechanical) grip, so this would fit right in. On dry tarmac engine power also matters and there it seems to lack a lot.

The complete motorsport depatment was completely disbanded after 2005 season and recreated again probably in the second half of 2007 or so. But as a team they started competing only in 2009.
