We <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/28/2014-ford-fiesta-st-la-2012/">first saw</a> the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/la-auto-show">Los Angeles Auto Show</a> last fall, and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/ford">Ford</a> has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.<br /><br />But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.<br /><br />It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. <a href="/2013/03/10/ford-fiesta-st-gets-worked-out-on-the-track/#continued">Scroll down</a> to see the hot little Ford getting busy.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/10/ford-fiesta-st-gets-worked-out-on-the-track/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/10/ford-fiesta-st-gets-worked-out-on-the-track/">Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Sun, 10 Mar 2013 19:08:00 EST.
