So no more Sordo in Wrc?
This sucks. Suppose there will be no more podiums for Mini this year...
It means that until the end of the year Armindo Araújo and Paulo Nobre will be the official Mini drivers with cars assisted by Motorsport Itália.
Prodrive stay responsible for developments and assist Mini costumers.
No word about Sordo, neither about when MINI will have a real oficial team on the WRC.
These guys are insane :eek:
bit strange how prodrive will keep developing the car for another company.
Prodrive/Sordo/Meeke have no money to run a Mini factory team.
Motorsport Italy/Araujo/Nobre do have the money and they drive Mini's. so BMW is giving them the label Factory M1 team.
And what about Prodrive? I guess they can't be to proud of this as they sound like. David Richards backing up two drivers who can't even get into the top 10. Sucks!
Very confusing, but I think Sordo will stay at Pro Drive, who will continue this season but not as official manufacturer entry.
Araujo and Nobre factory drivers, I'm laughing out VERY loud here at the moment.
what a clowns.....and i am talking about both sides of this joke.Quote:
