Ford Wins Wrc Manufactuers Title
#1
Yep, Ford-BP won the Manufactures Title in the WRC. Here is the quote from WRC.com

Quote:A long time coming

The noise from the service park was deafening as both Mikko Hirvonen and Marcus Gronholm completed the final stage of Propecia Rally New Zealand, confirming BP-Ford World Rally Team's claim for the Manufacturer's Championship, subject to the official publication of the results by the FIA. Team manager Malcolm Wilson was instantly drowned in champagne by his team, and was choked for words. "It's been ten years for me. It's just fantastic," he said. "It's been a combined effort. It really has been down to the people at M-Sport. They have done a fantastic job," he said.

Team director Jost Capito was equally moved. "To have a completely new car - we could never expect this after - not after 27 years of waiting," he said. "I think tomorrow we will realise what we have achieved today. It has been a real team effort. The drivers are new. They fitted into the team well, which I think shows how well the team works together when the drivers can adapt immediately."
