M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

[wyler]

Taking into account common history for M-Sport and Tänak, I think Tänak want's to help M-Sport to build good car or help the team to do well even if he is going to leave again.

and, he still have a contract, i don't think he can decide whatever he please...if m-sport decide to run a local rally, in some extent, tanak has to do it...

Remains to be seen if they actually go there

He was also registered for the local Finnish round but withdraw in the summer

That was a bit different. After Estonia he didn't see where they could make meaningful improvements for Finland so it made sense for him to take a little break. Now he's going to a local rally before a new WRC event which will likely not only help with getting a better set up for CER but also have firsthand experience with the type roads that will come the week after.

Even though Puma can't be driven to the top step of the podium, the work must continue to make the car better.

It sounds as if it's a make it or break it situation for M-Sport having sold only one Rally1 Puma since the start of last year.

Have Toyota or Huyndai sold any Rally1?

Who needs a Rally1 car?!

[Sal yet again]

As much as I'd like to see Rally 1 cars more often I think that its an arms race race we dont need in National rallying certainly in the UK where there's enough hassle with R5+ and different restrictors etc. How much would a non-hybrid sell for anyway?

Malcolm says it would be cheaper if they remove they hybrid unit.

No, but they never needed to to stay in WRC.

I totally agree, classes are complicated enough already and costs need to be lower not even higher !

Another wrong decision; Rally2/ R5 cars are enough for National events; another class for rich businessman is not needed. When are people in UK rallying going to wake up?
