Well we may not, but there both still contracted to prodrive. but my point is if prodrive finishes ahead of the so called full works cars.

Cars of Araujo and Nobre are run by Ralliart Italy/Motorsport Italia.

They also already started the hunt for new people to the team...

Prodrive supports the factory team long term´, with Nobre and Araujo. Nobre and Araujo are the new Sordo and Meeke...

you are not going to find at press release anything about motorsport italia
Motosport Italia HAVE their customers to run minis at wrc for 2012.So the clowns (at both sides) because they don t have the balls to announce a press release with truth words,they thought that if they ''serve'' Motorsport Italia as a works team they are going to escape the ridicule.

Can anyone better-informed than I offer a sensible explanation as to what BMW hopes to achieve by this move? I am struggling, I must say.

About the only thing worse I can see is Rally Champignonskit in Amerika where guys who could not win a DM rally i GruppH are called "Rally Super Star Travken Blockstrana" andf "Rally- Gods'... seriously.....Where when I point to results from last year SVenska Rallyt where there were plies of guys in doing better stage times of Amerika's Rally God in the concurrent Swedish Championship event, including 3 guys in Grupp H cars---one in a VW and one in a rwd Volvo faster than the "works" Fiesta WRC car----I get yelled at and the geniuses explain "It was totally different conditions for the guys behind!!!"

dags att återvända till röterna.
Back to the future before its all foutre!

Autosport writes that Motorsport Italia will run the two "factory" cars under the "WRC Team Mini Portugal" entry name. And I think Motorsport Italia is the same as Ralliart Italia.

Prodrive loses status as Mini's factory World Rally team - WRC news - AUTOSPORT.com

PS: I wonder if they can add the 26 manufacturer points scored in Monaco. The sad part is that Araújo and Nobre probably cannot even score 26 manu-points in the rest of the season :(

I have a feeling this is not the end of this story ... it's just too weird if MINI will settle for such a crap solution!
