[WRC] News & rumours (part II)

Wasn't that the reason why BMW supported Motorsport Italia last year, so the homologotion etc. is done now?

Yes. The car is homologated and can be used by private teams.

Yes. The car is homologated and can be used by private teams.

There's a difference between the car being eligible to be used, and compete, versus being used to score points in a registered team.

[Frostmourne]

I read it as: M2 team can score points with an WRCar homologated for WRC. the Mini is stil an homologated WRCar. A M2 team can also use a S2000 of Skoda or Peugeot if they wish, right?

Skoda S2000 and Peugot are not homologated under WRC rules!

[Frostmourne]

Under the WRC Regulations as they stand you do.

A WRC Team:
7.3.1 Undertakes to take part in a minimum of 7 nominated rallies including two outside Europe with
one, two or more World Rally cars of the same make.
7.3.2 Will be eligible to score Manufacturer’s points only if cars of the same homologation are used as
those of a Manufacturer under Art. 7.2 or as a new Manufacturer under Art. 4.1.2.

Those rules are old, now for 2013, you only need one rally outside Europe.

The MINI JCW Super Production can score points as an M2 Team. Oliveira did that in the first 2 rounds in 2011.
