The M-Sport Ford World Rally Team, whose cars are equipped with NGK spark plugs and NTK Lambda sensors, recorded four strong finishes at the end of the Acropolis Rally, finishing the World Rally Championship’s Greek event in the top five overall and with a podium finish in the WRC2 category.


In the senior team, Gus Greensmith and his Northern Irish co-driver Chris Patterson produced a strong fifth place overall, the team’s second-best result of the year. Meanwhile recovering from some technical issues, Adrien Fourmaux finished in seventh. Local hero Jourdan Serderidis, was guest star on the M-Sport Ford World Rally Team in a third Ecoboost-powered Ford Fiesta WRC, finishing in tenth place. 

In the WRC2 category, the Russian pairing of Nikolay Gryazin and his co-driver Konstantin Aleksandrov completed a thoroughly successful debut with the M-Sport Ford World Rally Team. The pair finished on the podium in third place for the class, having gained valuable experience of the car from which to continue their campaign through the rest of the season.

Gus Greensmith said, “The team have lived-up to the form that we have shown on rougher rallies this year and, although probably I could have hoped for more in terms of my finishing position, a top-five finish is a good thing for sure. I gave it everything I could.”

Mark Hallam, Marketing Manager, NGK Spark Plugs, said, “There were highly commendable performances by the M-Sport Ford competitors who always fight hard, whatever the event and whatever the conditions.”
