This season definitely isn't turning out the way Ford would have liked it to. Colin McRae, usually one of the "big guns" in the WRC, has basically faded away to a nobody this year.
Currently, in Manufacturer's Points,
Ford is tied with
Subaru in second place with 27 points. Ford will have some catching up to do, if they ever hope to catch the 68 points of
Peugeot.
