Up-and-coming co-drivers are set to benefit from “once in a lifetime opportunities” as part of a new working arrangement between Motorsport UK and World Rally Championship team, M-Sport Ford.
M-Sport Ford’s Team Principal believes the work that has gone on behind the scenes in the period since Rallye Monte-Carlo last month puts their Puma Rally1 in a good place going into Rally Sweden.
Elfyn Evans – and not reigning World Rally champion Kalle Rovanpera – is being tipped for victory on this weekend’s Rally Sweden, which kicks off on Thursday evening with a Super Special Stage.
M-Sport has officially revealed the look its Puma Rally1 car will sport for the upcoming FIA World Rally Championship campaign in the hands of Ott Tanak and Pierre-Louis Loubet.
Tributes have poured in for renowned rally driver and YouTube sensation Ken Block, who has lost his life in a snowmobile accident in his native America.
A series of changes will come into effect in time for next year’s World Rally Championship following the final meeting of the FIA’s World Motorsport Council (WMSC) in Italy.
Rising French star Pierre-Louis Loubet says landing a full-time drive in the World Rally Championship next season with M-Sport gives him the opportunity to “show all my potential”.
Ott Tanak believes joining forces with M-Sport for the 2023 World Rally Championship season is the right call and one that represents his best chance of winning the drivers’ title for a second time.
Craig Breen insists agreeing to a partial programme in the 2023 FIA World Rally Championship should not be viewed as a backward step – but rather a chance for him to hit the rest button on his career.
Craig Breen has left the M-Sport Ford World Rally Championship team just one year into his two-year contract, saying he believes the decision to be the right one for all parties.
Craig Breen’s shunt on the opening day of Rally Japan is “frustrating” but one that has already been forgotten about, according to M-Sport Ford Team Principal Richard Millener.
The chance for Toyota and its all-conquering World Rally Championship team to compete in its own back yard in front of its home supporters is one that it “deserves”, according to one rival Team Principal.
The FIA’s Rally Director says increasing the number of manufacturers represented in the World Rally Championship remains a “long-term target” moving forward.
