History

2007 season

Companc driving on a road section of the 2007 Rally Japan.

The Munchi's Ford World Rally Team competed in the World Rally Championship in 2007 for ten rounds. The drivers who started the season for the team at the Swedish Rally were Luís Pérez Companc and Juan Pablo Raies. Companc finished the rally in 15th, but his team mate Raies retired before the start of the event. Despite scoring eight points, Raies was replaced by Federico Villagra half way through the season in Italy. Villagra would go on to score just two points. The best result for the team came at the 2007 Rally Japan when Companc and Villagra finished fifth and seventh respectively, scoring six points for the team. The team finished last in the constructors' championship with 14 points. However, the initial season for the team was simply to familiarise themselves with the series and the car.

2008 season

For the 2008 season the team will again only contest ten rounds. Federico Villagra will drive all ten rounds for the team, while Luís Pérez Companc will share the second car with Henning Solberg, and Barry Clark, the reigning Fiesta Sporting Trophy International champion, who will contest only 3 rounds of the championship for the team.

2009 season

2010 season
