What it is Filled
The Ford Puma Rally1 is a purpose-built, four-wheel-drive rally competition car developed by M-Sport with Ford for the FIA World Rally Championship's Rally1 category, using Puma-inspired bodywork over a tubular safety structure.
In scope
- Ford Puma Rally1 identity, M-Sport provenance and distinction from production Puma vehicles
- Season-specific specifications, homologation extensions and hybrid or non-hybrid configurations
- Powertrain, spaceframe, suspension, braking and aerodynamic configuration
- Stage, road-section and service operating states and their prerequisites
- Condition evidence, component life, safety readiness and technical eligibility
Out of scope
- Production Ford Puma road-car specifications and ownership guidance
- Other Ford rally-car models and the general Rally1 category definition
- Individual chassis ownership, complete repair histories and asset accounting
- Team organisation, driver competence and contractual relationships
- Rally routes, event management, championship standings and sporting results
Why it exists Filled
Enable an AI agent to recognise the Ford Puma Rally1 competition-car model, assess a represented car against its documented specification, and determine whether operation, servicing or competition entry is supported.
Distinguishing features Filled
- Require M-Sport build or homologation evidence identifying Ford Puma Rally1; Puma badging, silhouette and competition livery alone are insufficient.
- Distinguish its competition spaceframe and integrated cockpit safety structure from the production Puma body structure. [Ford technical description](https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fsa/br/pt/news/2024/09/ford-disputa-o-mundial-de-rally-nas-montanas-do-chile.html)
- Check Rally1 identity against the applicable homologation record rather than equating it with another Ford rally car or a visually similar replica.
- Do not require hybrid equipment as an invariant identity test: Ford documented hybrid and non-hybrid Pumas competing in 2024, and FIA removed the existing plug-in hybrid units for 2025. [Ford configuration evidence](https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fsa/br/pt/news/2024/09/ford-disputa-o-mundial-de-rally-nas-montanas-do-chile.html) [FIA rule change](https://www.fia.com/news/wrc-rally1-spectacle-maintained-following-technical-changes)

Who is affected
- Drivers and co-drivers
- Spectators
- Marshals and recovery crews
Owners Filled
Steward
