Another cycle lost by Ford.
Yep. Narrative keeps changing though. Few months ago they'd only put the money down for a top tier driver who can win a championship, or they'll continue with the "youngsters". Now Tanak is available..., they don't have the money. Off road car being developed, Wilson saying they've got the capacity to get involved in F1. So many mixed messages.

I don't understand Ford's angle either. They put big resource into this hybrid car, Msport were helped out financially and technically by Ford more than the previous cars, so why are they content with pay drivers and poor results? Just put a few million down for Tanak for a season and let Msport focus their resources on development. Loeb has shown the car is quick, Msport just need to seriously fix reliability big time, and bring development or as you say, it's a wasted cycle of this rally1 car.
