M-Sport Ford reveals its livery for 2019

The holding of the Birmingham motor show (Great Britain) is an opportunity for the teams entered in the World Rally Championship (WRC) de révéler leurs couleurs. M-Sport Ford ouvre le bal jeudi avec la déco des Fiesta WRC, driven by Elfyn Evans, Teemu Suninen, and Pontus Tidemand (on certain rounds) in 2019.

Introducing our delivery for the 2019 @OfficialWRC season. The popular nitrous blue color scheme is back, and our state-of-the-art test track is vividly incorporated within the design. It will be on show at this weekend's @Autosport_Show…what do you think? #WRC #FordPerformance pic.twitter.com/Gy7oPZxpQ3

The departure of Sébastien Ogier at the end of 2018 to Citroën has a real visual effect on Ford Fiestas. Exit the colors Red Bull (partner of Gapençais), replaced by an elegant navy blue dress which is reminiscent of the decoration of the 2014 season. 

However, this pretty shade highlights the absence of a main sponsor; except Castrol lubricant and Michelin manufacturer, no logo external to Malcolm Wilson's companies is affixed to the bodywork. 

“The coming year promises to be crucial for M-Sport, indicates the British Managing Director. We have a large number of projects, such as the opening of our Evaluation Center, which includes a test track. It's fantastic to see this circuit as the setting for our Fiesta WRC.

Without the help from Ford, MS-RT (the small series vehicle subsidiary of M-Sport), Castrol, Michelin and our trusted partners, we would not have been able to continue our commitment to the WRC », recognizes Malcolm Wilson.

This announcement finally allows us to know the numbers that the M-Sport Ford drivers will wear. Eflyn Evans chose 33 while Teemu Suninen opted for 3.
