Ken Block kills his ex-WRC Escort Cosworth with fire!

By Iain KellyIain Kelly

Ken Block has had a day he would rather forget, destroying his genuine Group A ex-World Rally Championship Ford Escort.

Having recommissioned the rare, super-desirable Escort Cosworth RS earlier this year, Block claims a transmission fault caused him to clip a rock, rolling the Ford twice.

The Escort immediately started burning fiercely and was not able to be saved. Thankfully Block and his co-driver got out unhurt.

Can you ever forgive Ken Block for destroying this legend of a racecar? Comment below.
