Das BP Ford Abu Dhabi-Werksteam zeigte bei der Rallye Spanien, zwölfter von 15 Läufen zur Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft, eine weiterhin aufsteigende Form auf Asphalt, konnte aber nicht in den Kampf um den Sieg eingreifen. Die Ford Focus RS WRC-Besatzung Mikko Hirvonen und Jarmo Lehtinen erreichte hinter Sieger Sébastien Loeb und dessen Teamkollege Dani Sordo den dritten Podest-Rang. Der für die beiden Asphalt-Rallyes in Spanien und auf Korsika ins Ford- Werksaufgebot berufene Belgier François Duval wurde Vierter. Markenweltmeister Ford liegt in der Marken-WM damit weiter auf Rang zwei, genau wie Titelkandidat Mikko Hirvonen in der Fahrerwertung.
