Prodrive Mini WRC

Maybe Mini could introduce the BMW art car concept to WRC. Keep one car in the traditional red and white and the other car could be 'done' by a top art student from the wrc round country.

First official video from Prodrive with Mini Countryman WRC on test road - http://bit.ly/hVQwHi

worst teaser video i ve seen.

i feel sorry for meeke and sordo already...

To my eyes, it is without question the worst-looking WRC car for many a year.

Any other link? I can't see anything on an ipad

Even in wide screen you haven t got to see something....

this video is really extremely bad, especially the sound with the windnoise...

Good chances to be the new Suzuki - why on earth did they make that video... :confused: Seriously speaking I don't too much like judging cars based on video footage. Things that concern me most are the several weak signals that suggest that Mini really is not a serious attempt:
- Marcus saying that he really wanted to drive it next year, but It didn't go anywhere.
- The small amount of Mini/BMW public presence.
- Sordo's comments about the car
- Sordo's co-driver chance due financial reasons
- Prodrive seeking WRC team manager for months with no success

Also my personal opinion is that Countryman is far from optimal base car because of the body dimensions, height, center of gravity, aerodynamics etc.

I really 100% hope that I'm wrong! :)

Comments on this super-spectacular official Prodrive video

- Extremely boring video and montage
- Vomit livery
- Very bad sound
- Looks like it was made in a garage yesterday , at least it could be all white


Disaster .
