You can easily spot it by a green-white-orange flag . If you have never seen it , it looks like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Ireland . Those people didn't fight for their independence for centuries so that you can call them British or even English . Northern Ireland is a part of the United Kingdom , but not Great Britain . Republic of Ireland is an independent country . Is that so hard to remeber ?

this explains it!

MODS can you create a treat for nationalities?
Meeke, McRae and Burns are Dutch drivers !!! WilliamIII conquered Great Britan and Ireland. And the new king will be Charlses' son, William IV, so originally the Uk is from The Netherlands.
Loeb is partly France, but also Britisch, because ones the UK conquered France. But also Germany conqeured France. And that part of France belonged to The Netherlands. So Loeb is France/Britisch/Dutch/German.

can we now please go back to news and rumours? thanks

Awesome, thanks!

Back to topic.
Armindo Araujo's project with Mini is not only for 2011, but it is a 2-3 year plan.
"What is agreed with my sponsors is that this project is 2 / 3 years. That is, the first year is to learn and develop the car, going back to what the brand wants. In fact, before it all black white, could confirm a number of important details: my status on the team (pilot satellite), access to regular testing throughout the season and evolutions of the car. Moreover, there is even the chance to realize more than the rallies planned by the team official in the first year. "

This is in accordance with the program initially presented to their sponsors and providing a first season with eight rallies (probably all the European stage of the championship, starting on the Vodafone Rally de Portugal).

It’s going to be very interesting to follow his season.

One thing I been wondering about is how Prodrive have been delivering the cars even before the Mini has been homologated (or I don’t if it has been already but I assume it hasen’t).
