M-SPORT FORD SHOW SPEED IN SWEDEN
M-Sport Ford World #rally Team's EcoBoost-powered #fordfiestawrc showed winning pace at this weekend's #rally #sweden – claiming five stage wins and challenging for victory on the second round of the FIA World #rally Championship.
With the team's continued development paying dividends, Teemu Suninen delivered an incredible performance through the opening stages. Leading the field for the first time in his career, the young Finn was consistently quick and went into yesterday's competition with a slender lead over M-Sport's former protégé Ott Tänak.
Keeping the Estonian honest, it looked as though Suninen would be locked in an intense battle for victory before he became a victim of the snowbanks. A second dice with the snowbanks then ended with a high-speed impact which brought M-Sport's world-class technicians to the fore – replacing part of the rollcage in less than three hours to see their latest star back out on the stages.
