Btw, the Mini was homologated on condition BMW/Mini would run a full season the year after. We all know that FIA permitted an irregular move from BMW to get another team than Prodrive to run officially the Minis after MC. The solution was Araujo private entry (alongside Nobre), run by Motorsport Italia team, otherwise the car homologation would be cancelled (and private owners would be forced to sue BMW).

It doesn’t seem ‘unfair’ to get that kind of conditional homologation for the ’17 Polo. If next year VW doesn’t run it, homologation should be cancelled and the car put on the museum. Meanwhile fans would get the chance to see it in action and maybe (yep, that’s a huge maybe) VW could reconsider their rashly decided pull out.
