M-Sport Ford World Rally Teams

[rallyfiend]

Ford and Red Bull are joined at the hip these days....

I imagine the 'full factory' effort at Dakar next year will have Red Bull all over it too.

OH thats really beautiful! I just dont get why RedBull sponsor that guy haha
But ahh what a lovely car! Go Msport

They don't really. I think we should see it as a subsidy for the team from the Promoter, alongside the Ford connection. It's sensible, though I'd like to think they could have provided enough to pay for another of 'their' drivers to go there, like Mikkelsen.

They offered Mikkelsen a full time drive but he chose Hyundai there are articles and interviews online about it.

Fourmaux got the BRC winners trophy at the Autosport Show. Part of the reason for him getting the drive back in the WRC 2024.

Was that just an offer of a full time drive or were they going to pay him the going rate of a Driver too? I thought Andreas was keen to be paid the market rate to do his job, which no doubt Hyundai are going to do.

Unless there’s a big upturn in registrations this year, I hope M-Sport field another driver in the BRC to ‘do a Fourmaux’. Despite his all-conquering performances last year it did at least bring some much needed gravitas to an otherwise poor championship. Unfortunately all the drivers they have on their books now are the two Rally1 drivers!

Hope Fourmaux can finally overcome his big off from RMC22 and fullfil his promise from 2021. As long as Munster has a cleaner season than Loubet last year, they will definitely be chances for a good result. Let's go.
