Are 1st and 2nd gear not torque-limited on these then? On the mondeo it seems i get about 50% of peak torque to protect the gearbox, it only opens fully up in 3rd.
2nd certainly has some pull so I don't think that's torque limited.
1st is over too quickly to tell and besides it just flashes the traction control light which crudely cuts drive.
