In an online video released by the Cockermouth-based team, it takes viewers through the process of dressing the car’s bare carbon fibre shell i🌼n a livery said to be influenced by “synthetic music”.

Similar to last year, the Puma Rally1’s “bold, new look” is dominated by the logo and colouring of energy drinks compan♚y Red Bull, with this present on the front, side♛s, and rear of the car.

This coincides with the news that both Tanak – who returns to M-Sport after five seasons away – and Loubet🐠 – who has been 🐎handed a full season at the top table – are now part of the Red Bull family.

M-Sport is the third and final World Rally Championship outfit to go public with its title challenger following recent unveils by Toyota Gazoo Racinꦉg and Hyundai Motorsport with their GR Yaris Rally1 and I20 N Rally1 cars respec♚tively. However, unlike them, the aero package on the Puma Rally1 does not appear to have been changed all that much during the course of the off-season.

“Inspired by synthetic wave music, and maintaining its electrified look as a nod to the hybrid era, 2023’s livery features neon bolts of vibrant pink and electric b☂lue across a canvas of the iconic Ford blue,” said M-Sport.

“The team takes the 🐬success of 2022’s stunning livery and takes it one step further, hoping to make an impact in both colour and performance in 2023.

“Ford branding remains prom𒀰inent on the car in the central bonnet location, while the iconic Red Bull remains a key feature of both Tanak and Loubet’s cars.

“Red Bull’s extended sponsorship now covers both drivers, who will bꦬe donning their new caps as official Red Bull athletes in 2023,” M-Sport added.

The new design is also going to grace the third points-scoring Puma Rally1 of Jourdan Serderidis. The Greek driver sa🌳ys it is going to be “a privilege but also a huge challenge” t꧑o kick-off 2023 in the southern Alps.

“Considering the level of competition and the tricky snow and ice conditions, I will be more thanꦺ happy to be in the top 🉐20 of this fantastic rally,” he said.
