Ford: A global automotive legend
Founded in 1903 by Henry Ford, the American brand quickly revolutionized the automobile industry with mass production and the Model T. From the 1960s, Ford became heavily involved in competition , achieving numerous successes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in Formula 1 and of course in rallying.
Ford's involvement in the World Rally Championship dates back to the 1970s with the legendary Escort RS. This tradition continues brilliantly with the Fiesta RS WRC, which perfectly embodies the brand's sporting philosophy: combining pure performance with legendary reliability. Ford has thus won numerous manufacturers' titles, confirming its status as a benchmark in the world of global rallying.
The creation of the Fiesta RS WRC is part of this prestigious lineage, with Ford keen to demonstrate that even its most compact models can compete with the best machines on the rally planet.
A memorable Welsh epic
Rally GB has a special relationship with French and European motor racing. Held mainly on the winding roads of Wales , this event is renowned for its unpredictable weather conditions, which transform each stage into a real technical challenge.
The number 3 Ford Fiesta RS WRC particularly distinguished itself during these Welsh events, offering memorable duels in the coniferous forests. The local spectators, true rally connoisseurs, quickly adopted this little Ford, which braved the elements with remarkable determination.
A notable anecdote tells of a particularly muddy stage in 2012 when the number 3 Fiesta lost its rear wing in a ditch. Rather than abandoning the race, the crew continued on, transforming the technical handicap into a pure spectacle for the thousands of spectators gathered along the route.
This ability to overcome adversity in the most extreme conditions perfectly exemplifies the spirit of British rallying, where tenacity and adaptability often trump pure power. The Ford Fiesta RS WRC has become the embodiment of these values, appealing to an audience far beyond the Welsh borders.
