A few weeks back we announced that Ken Block, famed for his excellent Youtube Gymkhana videos, was switching his Subaru WRX STi for a Ford Focus RS in the World Rally Championships. Today we show you the smaller 2.0-litre turbo engine Ford Fiesta rally car he’ll be trialling in the American rallies.
Here are the latest pics of the Monster-sponsored Fiesta, a short video clip and the upcoming dates for the WRC. Look out for Block in action this weekend, as he, the Fiesta and Italian co-driver Alex Gelsomino make their competition debuts.
