MINI Motorsport has released a promo involving Monte Carlo winners Paddy Hopkirk and Rauno Aaltonen and MINI’s motorsport heritage in the 60’s. It’s a fun romp through the past that hopefully mirrors future success.
<p>The first 3 minutes were great. Still the classic experience and the new WRCÂ are completely different creatures. During their days it was truly David vs Goliath as the classic was not only small but lower powered than the competition. These days the biggest difference between the cars is the sheet metal, each of them are more or less the same. So WRC is more Goliath vs Goliath</p>
<p>It’s good to see the legendary Classic, as well as Mr. Aaltonen and Mr. Hopkirk.
But I’d better stopped speculating on 60th victories and prove that the new MINI is also capable to be on podium! </p>
