Suninen to drive for M-Sport Ford in WRC 2020 season

in #sport4 years ago

Hi, Steemers!

Young Finnish gun Teemu Suninen agrees to the new deal with M-Sport Ford and it is a commercial deal because his manager and sponsors pay for his drive. Yeah, they still have to pay for a drive because some top results are still missing and the current ones are not enough to bring him a deal with the top team who will give him a salary.

I don't say that M-Sport Ford is not a top team but they are semi-private team with Ford's financial injection for every season. So they have to sell the seats to stay in the business.

But Malcolm Wilson as a team owner won't go down because he a smart businessman and he knows that he has to stay in the sport if he wants to sell or rent those cars he has.

And if we know that current WRC car costs around 750 000€, it is not that easy to pay it and maintain it through out the season. Costs can be enormous.

So, Finnish manager Timo Jouhki which is not high in my eyes again secured a drive for Suninen and that is the most important thing for a young driver. Jouhki ruined sport with his seat buying but that's business and not a child play.

Let we see the Suninen's progress in the next rallies.
