Mini wants to show the speed of the WRC Countryman in Sardinia

It seems that at the headquarters of Prodrive continue with the same ambition that throughout its history the world Rallye. That is why they want within the team of David Richards in the first test of your calendar, the rally of Sardinia, the new Mini Countryman WRC demonstrates its potential in combating the main candidates to victory before that finished the race without mechanical problems.
At least that is what has been declared Richard Taylor less than a month after the debut of the new car in the Italian race. These means that both Dani Sordo and Kris Meeke intended to get all the juice to the Countryman to achieve the highest possible, instead of just reach the end in a position worse in the general classification in the Rally.
It is what David Lapworth always says, is more difficult to make a fast car to a reliable car. That is what we are looking for here. We want a fast car and we believe that we have one. We can work on the durability later, but we want to see the car there in Italy.
