In pictures: Ogier's 2017 Fiesta
M-Sport has revealed the first pictures of the car with which Sébastien Ogier will defend his WRC drivers' title in 2017.
We'll have to wait until January's Autosport International Show to see the final design, but this interim evolution shows the car emblazoned with a Red Bull scheme that echoes the look of his 2016 season Volkswagen Polo R.
For the first time since 2005, M-Sport will field two separate designs for their lead drivers next year.
Ogier's team-mate Ott Tanak's car [bottom] carries a geometric design inspired by the ‘disguise’ livery of the team's test cars.
Both cars will make their competitive debut at the season opening Rallye Monte-Carlo [19-22 January].
