    At least we got to see the RX feature this week before the show got pulled following Clarkson's fracas with a producer !!

    I know! Having waited two months for the rallycross feature, I'd have pretty peeved if they had cancelled it the week the feature was due to air!

    According to a lot of news reports the Clarkson incident actually happened last week, but was only reported this Monday. Good thing they didn't report it at the time or the rallycross episode would have been canned!

    When Clarkson has some more time available now he could join this forum, to make it more spicy...Or maybe he already subscribed years ago and we know him...

    The exact JRM rallycross schedule for 2015 is unknown at the moment. JRM confirmed they had bought the entire MINI Countryman project from Prodrive late last year...

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/117240

    ...and they recruited another ex-Prodrive engineer this week...

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/117979

    ...but they still haven't announced their competition plans for 2015.

    Riku Tahko seems a likely candidate for a drive this year, I'm also wondering if Liam Doran might follow the MINI's.

    Its not official yet but they will be running the WorldRX this year!
    I understood that Tahko and Chicherit are the drivers. Nothing official too, but there was a few twitter/intagram talks between them, media and fans... I wouldnt be surprised if they race the XGames race too.

    Ah yes, I was forgetting Chicherit! A full World Championship is a serious undertaking, I wonder if they will just do select rounds this year in preparation for a full season next year? Still JRM are an accomplished team (and it seems like they have some serious talent to support the MINI's), so hopefully they will just take the plunge and go for a full season.

    The official launch for the World Championship is next month (13th April), so hopefully all the teams we are are waiting to hear about will announce their plans between now and then.

    There will be young driver from Finland, Kalle Markkanen 15/16y with MINI "S1600" 2wd. Teaming up with Riku Tahko.

    I couldn't help but wonder before I clicked " whose son is suddenly the next big talent that 'deserves' a works ride?"


    After big search for the next best driver the answer is
    Kristofersson's son I see.

    Maybe there should be a class exclusively for sons of formerly fast people.

    Just so we know what the main qualifications are...
