what does that mean? is this rally 'open'? like, could thierry win the event on the rally1 car?

It was a round of Spanish Gravel Cup. I don't know if this championship is open. You would have to ask someone from Spain.

Like TypeR said, works teams sometimes do such tricks, when they test something in a lower level event.

Reports suggest that Neuville just didnt want to take Heikkila's glory and win on what was just a test for Chile for the i20 Rally1.

Sponsors explain the attraction of Sesks:

Luke Einier, founder of M-Sport Ford sponsor SafetyCulture, admitted that he sees a natural talent in Sesks.

"There is an 'X' factor in his driving style, and his approach to the sport is very refreshing. Mārtiņš has proven that with his speed you can beat and keep up with the best in the world, so the 2025 season will be exciting," said Einiers.

Other supporters also confirm that it is Mārtiņš and Renārs' energy, enthusiasm, and ability to make an extremely technically, psychologically, and physically demanding sport accessible to fans with ease that has encouraged them to support the talented athletes.

Alongside the partners who have supported Latvia's fastest crew in the past, a new partner has joined the team – the technology company "Tet ". Its chairman of the board, Uldis Tatarčuks, points out how important it is for everyone to prove together every year, every month and every day that Latvia can.

"Mārtiņš and Renārs carry Latvia's and our name around the world, and also remind us all that impressive successes are possible if you invest energy in creating them and do it together with excellent cooperation partners. Our goal, working together, is to experience the day when Renārs and Mārtiņš stand on the podium at the "Tet Rally Latvia" WRC stage. Without pressure, everything will work out," Tatarčuks was confident.

"STORENT Latvija" director Guntis Grīnbergs said that while working with Mārtiņš Seskas last year, he had the opportunity to observe how high quality standards he applies to each project.

"There have already been striking victories on the track that have caught the world's attention. Those who have such a spark in their eyes never stop. I am sure that new records and peaks are ahead," he said.

Good to see, and he will probably mop the floor with his fellow Ford crewes. He is a natural!

I suggest to watch his driving from Rally Aluksne, you can find numbers of vids in his Insta account and youtube. Very spectacular even with Proto car. Will be interesting to see what can he do in Swe.

About mopin the floors - i am actually believing in McErlean. That guy has smth in him. May be not at once as he lacks experience, but he will grow through the year.

And Munster is 2nd seasoner - he will be better 100%.

M-Sport will look better than one might think.

Some tarmac experience would be great, too, but that's fantastic news.

Mārtiņš Sesks @MSesks
There are other rallies than WRC where to train for tarmac. And we’ll definately use them.

Have you thought about the costs of those 6 events in a modern Rally1 car? According to this article in a Polish magazine "Rally and Race" each round costs about 300 000 Euro. So for 6 rounds that would be about 1 800 000 Euro. Isn't it crazy?
