Ken Block to give all new Ford Focus RS its U.K. debut at Festival of Speed

One of the world's most spectacular drivers, Ken Block, will give the all new Ford Focus RS its U.K. debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, during the June 25^th to 28^th event.

This year's Festival of Speed theme is 'Flat-Out and Fearless: Racing on the Edge' and few drivers hold this philosophy as close to their hearts as Block, whose amazing Gymkhana videos have won worldwide acclaim and achieved over 300 million views on YouTube.

He will drive the new Focus RS, which has been developed by Ford Performance up the iconic 1.16-mile Goodwood Hill climb throughout the weekend.

Block will also bring his incredible 'Hoonicorn', a 1965 Ford Mustang 'notchback' that has been customised with four-wheel drive, an 845bhp Ford V8 engine, bespoke suspension and tyres and bodywork inspired by rally and racing cars plus toys he owned as a child.

The Hoonicorn was used in Block’s most recent viral video, Gymkhana 7, which has gained more than 24 million views on YouTube since its release in November 2014
