M-Sport’s Ford Fiesta WRC came out on top in the Rally Car of the Year category.
Despite being up against factory opposition from Citroen, Hyundai and Toyota, Malcolm Wilson’s M-Sport team won the first manufacturers’ crown of the WRC’s new rules era in a Fiesta fielded with only limited Ford support.
As well as taking Ogier to the drivers’ title, M-Sport won rallies with Ott Tanak and Evans.
Ogier’s team-mate Tanak blossomed into a surprise championship contender and Evans became the first home winner of Rally GB since Richard Burns in 2000 with a dominant performance in Wales in his DMACK-shod Fiesta.
