IDK, there have been so much problem with his Fiesta. First, suspension... now the brakes. What's next? Tie rods & steering rod break?

Why Subie & Mitsu! Why they gotta leave WRC!

Sorry I meant Fiesta & Focus. First was Fiesta w suspension problem & now Focus w late braking busted suspension.

Seriously, Ford Racing gave him only one lap practice test before Mexico WRC, WTF were they think Ken Block is? God? At least give him several days of practice.
