Well if that will come true, I think it can be a good thing, since they do very good in TCR, bringing proper funds to the british team and M-Sport doing the best they can with proper investment. It would be about time we get someone big in WRC and have a real fights over the events.

Geely has Cyan Racing at their disposal if they ever decide to enter rallying. And it's not that easy for M-Sport to leave Ford behind.

Ford Racing made a 2025 Wrap. No reference to Puma.

Because their season was miserable. If M-Sport would have results, believe me, they would brag about it.

I think Malcolm is in the tight spot: they can not dropp Ford bcs of how everything is built around it (R4, R3,R2, Dakar, R1), but Ford does not care about WRC. To pivot away they would need some really committed manufacturer who would be serious about rallying for at least 10 years. If Msport would be successful with support class cars and sell them on the scale of Skoda, possibly they would have more alternatives.
Closing date for Monte Carlo entries is 19.12.

They are not manufacturer, so they can run multiple brands or build cars for any who are willing to pay. Even Prodrive did run Subaru and alongside they build Proton WRC car, which sadly never hit the stages.
Maybe they could run 2 teams, one with Fords and one with whoever will come (for example only Lynk&Co)

Ford are only interested in selling SUVs and pickups at home and EVs in Europe.
The next (Gen-E) Puma is EV-only, so there's no chance of a WRC27 Puma coming with an ICE run by M-Sport.
To stay in the top level of WRC, M-Sport need a new partner.
