Got a problem with my Fiesta Finesse.

When I am taking my foot of the clutch the revs won't come down (straight away)

Any hints on what the cause can be???

I would guess that you need your ECU updating because your accelerator could be electronic and not with a cable depending on what engine you have and also the ecu is setting the fuel mix.

Sounds like the good old ECU problem, it seems very common in the ST, not sure whether its a common wide fiesta problem tho. An ECU update seem to help a lot for my ST, maybe give your dealer a call and ask them if they can do an update.

Are you talking about the Clutch or Accellerator pedal?
