...like a pure race car, it's astonishing that under British rules you can actually get single vehicle type approval to drive them on public roads. "Scuse me Lotus?

...'After the disappointing result of last weekend's Rally of Great Britain, I'm looking forward to the fun of the Race of Champions,' said Hirvonen. "I won't have to worry about points and world championship positions in Beijing. But that doesn't mean I won't be taking it seriously. I'll be as keen to win as every other driver and it will be good to link up with Marcus again in the Finland team for the NationsNations Cup. Just like the old days!" Hirvonen, co-driver Jarmo Lehtinen and Ford team-mates Jari-Matti Latvala and Miikka Anttila will be at the inaugural Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this weekend...

...But it's still wasn't fast enough to set a new Nurburgring lap record for its class. As promised , Ford took its latest hot hatch around the "Ring in pursuit of the front-drive record currently held by the track-focused Renaultsport Megane R26.R , which set a blistering time of 8 minutes, 17 seconds. Ford's time? 8 minutes, 26 seconds. The session, which you can watch in the pair of videos after the jump , was held in conjunction with German car mag Sport-Auto, whose editor-in-chief Horst von Saurma-Jeltsch, a noted master of the Nordschleife, performed the driving duties. And while the Focus RS may have come up some nine seconds slower than the Renault, you can bet Ford will give it another shot or two before claiming defeat."
