First view: Fiesta’s Finland facelift

These are the first pictures of the facelifted Fiesta RS WRC that M-Sport World Rally Team drivers Mikko Hirvonen and Elfyn Evans will use at Rally Finland next week.

The car has new front-end styling, bringing it in line with the latest Ford Fiesta ST road car on which it is based.

The changes are chiefly cosmetic and are limited to a new front bumper and bonnet, plus modifications to the sump guard and ducting for the radiator and intercooler.

While the changes will not provide a performance advantage, they underline the bond between M-Sport and Ford.

M-Sport boss Malcolm Wilson said: “We continue to enjoy a strong working relationship with the Ford Motor Company and their technical support has been invaluable in the creation of our award-winning range of Ford Fiesta rally cars.
