Check this angry little beastie out! Ex-WRC Champion Marcus Gronholm and Marko Martin have been busy testing the new-for-2011 MINI Countryman WRC at Ponte De Lima in Portugal, with their new British team, Prodrive. Kris Meeke is already signed up to drive the 1.6-litre turbocharged MINI in some of the 13-rounds of the WRC next year, starting in Sweden, February 13th. See www.wrc.com for more news.

We can't wait to see how the new WRC cars, and the MINI in particular, get on... what do you think? Good luck Prodrive!
