They are Ford built. There was an article in Racecar Engineering about Chevy's 1.6/2.0 they're using for the BTCC.

 

The FIA has decreed that manufacturers must have a standardized 1.6/2.0L block across all of their racing series. There will just be RPM/induction limitations. The 1.6 displacement will be primarily for turbo applications and the 2.0 for N/A. In a couple years even F1 will be running turbocharged 1.6L 4cyl engines.

Is there any US coverage this year? Discovery HD Theater had it last year, but i'm not seeing anything this year.

 

There doesn't appear to be. At least not in a timely manner. Maybe they'll buy it from ESPN later, but right now I think Youtube is the fastest source with HD versions probably hitting the torrent sites later.

Bonus: The videos in the torrent are encoded with a codec that the PS3 can read. :) Just put them on a USB memory device and connect. The device should appear in the Video category. Hit Triangle to browse the device and choose the video. Enjoy WRC on your TV. :)

 

One downside is that the codec messed up the audio the same as the YouTube vids.
