WRC / Wilson: Sordo will not return to Ford

Jari-Matti Latvala injured in the collarbone, Ford WRT turned to Dani Sordo to contest the Rally from Argentina. The Spaniard put in a solid performance, protecting his third place despite the 500km special stage. But Sébastien's former teammate Loeb retired due to an alternator problem in the Power Stage and left with zero points on the clock. If the performance leaves a taste of unfinished business, Malcolm Wilson insists that Dani Sordo will not be back with Ford this season.

“Dani had a perfect rally for us”, commented Malcolm Wilson. “We are very sad for him with this retirement so close to the finish. However, it was only an exceptional commitment. We have no plans for Dani to return with us this season. Jari-Matti is our chosen driver for this season and we will not change our drivers. Why should we change them? We wouldn't want that and it's not going to happen. »
