New signing Ott Tanak's triumph in Sweden earlier this month ended the Ford squad's WRC victory drought that had stretched back to January 2022, when Sebastien Loeb scored a famous win in Monte Carlo.
This latest win came following a faultless drive from Tanak in only his second WRC appearance driving the Ford Puma. The Estonian however scored only one stage win, proving that the current Tanak/Puma package is not fastest compared to rivals Toyota and Hyundai.
