M-Sport will be fielding 2 cars on all rounds, I wish I could afford to do that!
Sounds like they are doing OK from this on their website: :)
"M-Sport also operates a thriving customer business for private teams. It assists Ford drivers with programmes world-wide involving the Focus RS WRC, the Ford Fiesta S2000, the Ford Fiesta R2, GpN Ford Fiesta ST, the Ford Fiesta R1 and, new for 2013, the all-new Ford Fiesta R5 as well as the ground-breaking Ford Fiesta RRC and RS WRC."
They also expanded into GT Racing with Bentley in 2013:
"Having mastered the stages of the FIA World Rally Championship for the Ford Motor Company, the Cumbrian outfit caught the eye of Bentley Motors and were selected to spearhead the design and development of the Continental GT3 race car as the luxury firm’s technical partners.
Working closely with Bentley, M-Sport have aided in the creation of one of the industry’s most anticipated returns to racing. Completing the first car in just six months, the Continental GT3 made its first public appearance at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of speed.
As development continues, Bentley Motors and M-Sport continue to work closely to ensure the Continental GT3 is just as successful and competitive as its predecessors."
Joakim Roman entered Rally Sweden with Millbrooks World Rally Team.
Will he do - or only the team - a World Rally program ?
Same for Martin Koci, entering with DS3 R3 ... WRC 3 + JWRC ?
Vodafone is the new M-Sport sponsor ?!
I doubt it. They have been scaling back all of their sponsorship portfolios this year, especially in motorsport. They terminated their contract with one of the V8 Supercar teams, and they are not renewing their deal with McLaren for 2014. I don't see why they would suddenly start sponsoring M-Sport.
3years deal from Rally sweden
it seems to be good ;)
