Portuguese Armindo Araújo was a top driver, twice P-WRC Champion, and also with some good result with a private Mini. The problem was his team, Motorsport Italia (and the manager Bruno di Pianto), the most dishonest team in the world, asking him to lie at the press conferences, asking him to tell the journalists that he had crashed to hide the car mechanical problems. Of course he could not do it, and that was his end. If you ask Michał Kościuszko, Motorsport Italia's driver after Armindo Araújo, he will tell you the same crap about the team and about Bruno di Pianto. That's why they are finished too. About the Mini, it was never a competitive car and it was a BMW Motorsport huge mistake.
I'm so happy with my Mini Countryman!
the best wrc car ever!
Did anyone notice how lightly the car landed at 3:51 ima need me that suspension right now 😅
That’s probably 10-20k right there lmao
Massive schock absorbers.
Öhlins suspension
Best ad for mini ever. Must buy
the woman at the 3" worried the car is going into her house ... so funny ;-)
2:13 "Oh ffuuuu...."
Thanks for sharing!
Am I the only one to think that Mini should return to WRC?
prodrive themselves said it was a winning chassis. just needed a good engine and driver!
Ben Cambray Like Kris Meeke and Andreas Mikkelsen? They would make a great team.
LW97 now we need a good engine. Reliable and lots of money for spare parts. Try and beat that Volkswagen!
Ben Cambray Well, but VW's gone too now
Kris Meeke was one of the drivers for the team back in 2011
Because MINI!
Mini power. Love it
Beautiful tribute.
I wish my r56 could sound like that lol
a nice fast car!
I agree
There not fast stock
@@williamthompson969 they sure are, 0-60 in 4.5 sec on a crossover at this pricepoint is not bad at all
these clips make me want to sell my F56 and get an R60 sooo badly
décibel le top des wrc...
Funnest car ever
