Still nothing official from Ford; though on Colin Clark's podcast he seems certain they're back. Maybe they're just increasing technical, and financial support - but still not enough for it to be 'official'. Which I think personally is disappointing.



As was mentioned on the Absolute Rally podcast a few weeks ago, if the double WRC Champions can’t attract official backing and/or a major title sponsor, then something isn’t quite right with the WRC. I hope I’m wrong and Ford come back officially……

Currently, Ford are backing NASCAR and IMSA which are basically both domestic series, plus the WEC, which apart from 1 race isn’t a massive series.
