Suprised they just dont call it a R3. After all that is the FIA class that our ST would race in anyways. (1.6L turbo 2wd 250hp limit)
Also suprised M-Sport builds an R2 then skips all the way up to R5.
The ST is essentially a non-caged street version of a R3 class street car. It would be an easy selling point to rack up some national, european and world championships with one. If I were Ford, I'd sink money into those championships since they dont offer an awd street version anyway.
As a side note, Rally America needs to get w/ the program and class cars correctly according to FIA rules.
