Probably didn't have a choice as mentioned above since Subaru pulled from the WRC.

 

Seems awfully late for that to be the reason. Subaru hasnt been in it for a while. I think Ford is trying to fix their image, and offered him more $$$ to do so.

Block wasn't in WRC before, he was in Rally America. I'm sure he would take any decent offer on the table that would give him a shot in the WRC.

 

This was talked about a few months ago in a few news releases, but maybe it wasn't finalized until now. Preiously I thought it was a development program with Block and Atkinson running Fiesta's in select events this year, with a full schedule possible in 2011.

Here's the link to the story that came out back in October.
