Ken Block joins Project E

A few days after Citroën, Ford also made its announcement. As part of the resumption of the Projekt E season in Holjies, the American manufacturer called on one of its most experienced drivers in the discipline, Ken Block.

« I am delighted to be able to take part in the first electric rallycross race in the Projekt E category behind the wheel of the STARD Ford Fiesta ERX. The car is great and I can't wait to get behind the wheel in Holjies », Launched the American.

Ford will therefore present itself in Sweden with the Fiesta ERC equipped with three electric motors developing a power of 450kW (around 610 horsepower) and prepared by STARD. The American firm intends to establish itself as the leader of the field.

The resumption of the 2020 WRX season is scheduled for August 22-23 at Holjies in Sweden for a doubleheader before continuing with the round at Kouvola in Finland a week later.
