MUD AND CUTS

摘要

Rallying's new cheaper rules have attracted Mini back to the sport - with a very different kind of Countryman. From this point on, nostalgia counts for nothing. When this car, the Countryman WRC, takes the Mini name back to the world rallying circus in 2011, ahead of a full campaign in 2012, it does so with a clean slate. Plucky Paddy Hopkirk being chucked out of the Monte Carlo Rally in 1966? Giant-killing from Timo Makinen? Might as well never have happened.
