Not a surprise

You can see the focus pulling out on any straight it gets but the renault is much lighter and a good handling car so will catch up on braking and cornering against the heavier car on such a tight circuit

Out on the open road i'd expect the FRS to show it a cleanish pair of heels

We'll see once the ring times come out as Ford are expecting to beat the R26R Megane sometime soon, I doubt the Clio will too?
