Could be cool. Certainly another competitor in WRC isn't a bad thing... http://www.autoblog.com/2010/07/27/mini-confirms-entry-into-2011-world-rally-championship-with-coun/
WRC sucks cause the same guy wins most of the time(at least 75% of all rallies won are by Loeb). When the series became the "Loeb wins unless he wrecks" show, I lost all interest. He won so much and so easily, I found it hard to believe that he wasn't cheating and being let off because he was a Frenchman in a French car.
I hate it when Loeb wins. I so prefer Mikko winning. Not because I hate Loeb, but because I can't stand listening to him talk in English. Mikko has a much better grasp of English, and doesn't have the annoying Accent that Loeb has that gives me a headache listening to him.
