Looks like Armindo will be taking this to the lawyers as fast as he can & BMW/Mini will claim some another scalp to add to the collection...

Actually, BMW/Mini might discreetly side with Araujo on this one.
From the sounds of things, Motorsport Italia is the problem here, not Mini. If Araujo takes action against the team, then it gives Mini a ready-made excuse to back out and throw their support behind someone else. I don't really understand why they stopped supporting Prodrive, but the Araujo-Nobre combination at Mini Team Portugal hasn't worked out very well.
It was about the money. Prodrive wanted money and MSI didn't look for money from mini/bmw.
