About the Ford Puma Rally1 WRC #22 M-Sport Ford World Rally Team M. Sesks / R. Francis Rally Poland 2024 IXO 1:18
TL;DR: The IXO Ford Puma Rally1 1:18 reproduces the #22 M-Sport Ford World Rally Team hybrid entry driven by Martins Sesks and Robbie Francis at Rally Poland 2024. Diecast construction and tampo-printed sponsor graphics capture the current Rally1 hybrid generation for a modern WRC display.
M-Sport's factory Ford entry in the current Rally1 hybrid era gets IXO treatment at 1:18, a scale that captures modern WRC livery detail without the smaller-scale compromise of 1:43 rally collecting.
IXO's Diecast Approach to the Rally1 Hybrid Generation
The Ford Puma Rally1 represents WRC's current technical era, a hybrid-assisted category that replaced the previous World Rally Car generation, and IXO builds its 1:18 diecast to reflect that modern silhouette rather than the wider-bodied cars of a decade earlier. The body carries genuine diecast weight, with the printed sponsor graphics and M-Sport Ford World Rally Team branding applied with clean edges rather than the softer registration a decal would show. Wheels and suspension geometry follow the raised rally stance rather than a road car's ride height, and the wide fender flares that define Rally1 aerodynamics are captured in the tooling rather than simplified away. This is a diecast built for livery accuracy first, which matters most to collectors tracking a specific driver pairing or a specific event rather than the Puma model generically.
Sesks and Francis at Rally Poland 2024
Rally Poland sits within WRC's gravel-surface calendar, a format that tests suspension travel and underbody protection differently than the tarmac rounds elsewhere on the schedule, and the #22 entry driven by Martins Sesks and co-driver Robbie Francis represents M-Sport's factory-supported program fielding Ford machinery in the current Rally1 category. Recreating a specific car number and driver pairing from a named event gives this model a fixed point in WRC's current season rather than a generic factory livery, which is exactly what motorsport collectors chasing event-specific pieces look for. IXO's decision to reproduce this particular entry rather than a composite factory scheme is what separates a rally diecast built for collectors from one built for casual buyers who only want the team colors.
Where a Current WRC Entry Fits a Rally Shelf
A current-generation Rally1 diecast works best next to other modern WRC entries rather than mixed with earlier Group A or Group B rally cars, since the Puma's hybrid-era proportions and aerodynamic package read as a distinct generation on their own. Collectors following M-Sport's Ford program season by season can use this Rally Poland entry as one fixed point in a growing timeline, adding subsequent events as IXO releases them. At this price and scale, the model trades ultimate panel-line precision for livery accuracy and event specificity, a fair trade for anyone building a modern WRC collection rather than chasing museum-grade detail.
