MINI to Join WRC
Come 2011, MINI will be joining the World Rally Championship for a select few races and for 2012 they will be racing full force. Prodrive is going to be doing the bulk of the build on the MINI that has a 1.6l turbo charged four cylinder engine. MINI has not been in the WRC racing for over 40 years so they are looking to make a strong comeback into one of the hardest motorsports championships out there to date. By the end of 2010 we should hopefully see the final result and have an idea of what races they will be participating in 2011.
