M-Sport is still fighting to fund its presence on all 14 rounds of the 2016 World Rally Championship despite confirmation from the FIA of the firm's manufacturer status.
WRC regulations stipulate that a manufacturer must contest all rallies, but team principal Malcolm Wilson has admitted he is still not in a position to confirm this will be possible.
"Don't get me wrong, we are working flat out to make that happen, but at the moment, nothing has really changed," Wilson told Autosport.
"We don't have the budget confirmed for all 14, so I can't tell you definitively that we will be at every event."
