Thanks for posting this OldLoad. It is pretty cool to see MINI return to its racing heritage. This is no doubt a whole new chapter in MINI history. I'm looking forward to seeing them compete in something as large as WRC. Great times ahead for MINI fans!

WRC is on HD THEATOR.

I "like" watching the World Rally Championships on HD Theater on Brighthouse channel 1341. When the Mini starts running I will "Love" watching it.

Right now it is the Citron/Ford show. It would be great if they can get the Mini competitive. Citron & Ford has been at it a very long time and really have their cars dialed in for the WRC.

There are other brands of cars running but you never see them on TV because they are so far behind the front runners. I sure hope this Mini car is up to the task.

This is great!! Prodrive is one of the top teams in the WRC and one of the best motorsport development groups in the world. I believe they ran Subarus winning effort for a while! I'm going to have to find out when the WRC is on HD Theater again!

Go MINI!!!
