- Pole Position's Rosanna Tennant spent a day at Prodrive's MINI John Cooper Works World Rally car factory in Banbury. Subscribe for more: link.base79.com/polepositionsub
Public Relations Manager, Ben Sayer, took Rosanna through every stage of changing a MINI Countryman road car into a MINI John Cooper Works World Rally car.
The 2013 World Rally Championship kicked off in January at the Rallye Monte-Carlo with Citroën Total Abu Dhabi World Rally Team's Sébastien Loeb winning the event for the seventh time. Prodrive's MINI team didn't compete at Monte-Carlo but they'll be making their debut at Rally Sweden this week with Finnish driver Jarkko Nikkara.
Pole Position will be at Rally Sweden so let us know if there's anything you want us to show, cover or ask!

This gal shows more enthusiasm than
a 9 year old with a new puppy, she's a keeper!!
That’s Rosanna Tennant. She’s one of the F1 TV commentators.
I’d only known her from this video before I subscribed.
Great video. Good to see someone picking up the slack for the WRC, so little coverage from their website.
Thanks so much for commenting. We're definitely looking at doing more videos like this so JRM Racing/Sumo Power sounds like it could be an interesting one to cover. We'll do a bit of research. RT
They should bring back Group A cars so people can actually relate to the cars, why even base rally cars on production models if 99% of everything get stripped out?
Group N, N4 and R are more or less showroom stock. Stateside we have Production GT, and Super Production GT cars. But as it is, they are not nearly as spectacular as the Open class cars and therefor just dont get any media coverage despite the rather large number of entries of those classes in rally.
Hymer300 Yea it's better than NASCAR though, they put a Toyota badge on the front of a car that is literally nothing from Toyota
5:36 " *We got the windscreen wiper motor here* "
" *that doesn't need to be reinforced?* "
" *well.. It's only a windscreen wiper motor...* "
LMAO
Well she is blonde!!
"A burnt up car you might find by the side of the road."
Where the fuck do you live?
GladiatorKing lmao, wales
Very valid question actually, i kinda wondered that at one point in time about rally cars due to the speed they travel at through rain mud etc and the ability of conventional wipers.
Great video. Loved it :)
Good Job Poleposition!!!
I like this sort of video too. Did she say '£400,000, let me tempt the boss?' LOLz
She said "let me talk with the boss" i'm pretty sure.
"only 400,000"
"We will ONLY ask for £400,000
Great video ! That was very interesting ! :)
Good insights, cheers.
They come on 3 flavours: WRC, S2000 1.6T (which is basically a WRC with a smaller turbo intake restrictor) and RRC.
Rosanna you are sooo cute! You are the essence of Pole Position! Luv U!!
@rx713bbp Hey thanks, I appreciate your expert opinion and knowledge on the subject!
@rx713bbp Looks like you haven't changed much since.
Goodbye pitiful Troller, hope you find yourself a life!
Interesting too see how the chassis and other components were prepped for rally. I really like the sexy narrator. There is another video with her doing a ride along. Love her enthusiasm! She's cool.
Fuck it !! I would just get a race exhaust, anti lag , suspension , seats and hot gf !!
also new brakes would be a good idea
I like this car,coming soon i will join wrc with mini wrc
Mansplaining definition in this video
More like this, of this!!!
Very good video! Nice filming, good looking chick, nice cars and some good facts!
I subbed, and i want MOOOAAR :P
I think these were the ultimate regulations for the WRC cars. Reasonable priced, somewhat stock looking from the outside but still fast. Private teams were able to buy (=afford) and race with these - something that is absolutely impossible with current WRC cars.
100% agreed
bella bionda!
So the only thing the same as the road car is the body shell and engine block and head. If thats the case does the driving ability of the road car effect the speed of the race car since nothing on the road car remains?
ooooooo What a lovely shop. That will be my shop some day. Neat and clean: not for the simple sake of itself but to make every step there after much simpler. Beautiful video ( and hostess ;-) ). Thank you very much! I swear I'm drooling over the whole thing (I want a Countryman btw) !!!
Now I know how to build a World Rally Car Car!
Good video guys more like these please :) could you do a tour of JRM Racing/Sumo Power ? :)
I only have lego and lube....
tough fit :c
''very limited as to what you can do to it''
Then what are the top 100 things you can't
do to it beside not being able to install
a Mustang body and 12
cylinder Ferrari engine?
Mini has a S2000 version that is basically a WRC car with a 30mm turbo restrictor.
Check the prodrive website, it's all there.
godness... she's so fit!...
RRC is the S2000 1.6T they just donc call it that way (actually, i dont know how prodrive call it) The difference between the WRC and RRC is the turbo restrictor (smaller on the RRC) and the Aero kit which makes it easy to change back and forth depending on the event you're want to run (ERC, WRC...) The engine and gearbox is the same on the RRC and WRC!
Is Wrc engine based on the same Engine as road legal version of that car?
Abhishek I believe so. My Mini is pretty heavily modified with an Owen turbo which is the one they use in the Mini Challenge race cars. Not sure if the WRC is the same 1.6 liter turbocharged engine, but if it is, it’s forged and stroked. Get a Mini, they are so much fun to drive!!
I want one.
Since Prodrive started building them in 2011 (Don't think they built any after that) They only built something like 35.
Well you never know! RT
Look at her facial expressions when he explains the parts of the mini.. hilarius
This gal shows more enthusiasm than
a 9 year old with a new puppy, she's a keeper!!
Well he's jinxed it now. Probably going to snap right off landing a big jump ;-D
This chick puts me into pole position
in my next live i hopefully have the money to buy such a toy
If you read the info as every video have then you will find out :)
Now, I want to make a Fiesta Rally Car.....i'm going to buy M-Sport Body Kit right now LoL
My friends dad owns 3 of these crazy !!
Doubt it.
You doubt it then haha
Jack Hunter Your friend needs to start a TH-cam channel and make videos about the cars
I think this presenter would be a better shot than Perry for BBC F1's lead presenter
Did she ask if you needed to reinforce the windshield wiper!? Haha.
Ah! I think if you press "Alt Gr" & $ or € you should get the pound symbol. If I press it and then press the $ symbol I get €
They made it actually produce HP.

S2000 cars have a 2000cc naturally aspired engine, which haves quite little in common with a WRC engine. Apart from the engine and gearbox, an S2000 car is quite simmilar to a todays WRC one.
As I know, Mini doesn't have an RRC car. Only Ford and Citroen have.
i would be nice if there is a race designed to measure the reliability and durability or stock cars only....so i cant help people to choose what car to buy...to me most races are non sense when they use heavily modified cars
I would marry this chick, even despite teh windscreen wipers comment. Just sayin...
3:51, larger than even what's fitted to a lorry.
guy in the background at 2:35 .... I know him lol...
nice video: there is nothing of similar on youtube
Obviously you haven't searched enough. Plenty of Ford Fiesta WRC videos one even hosted by this same reporter.
What a beautiful girl!
@greatwhitejake88 im so disapointed i cant spell lol.
Everything is the same as what you
would have in your 'road car' , I mean
the windshield wipers are
the same.
5:37 :)))))))
'is the windscreen wiper motor reinforced?'....mega lols
It was in pounds. £400,000 = $650,000
just 3 weeks to make that? damn, it took my 8 weeks to get my car in from my dealer :s guess i'm shopping in the wrong places :P...
Yay just £/$/€399,950 more to go.
s2000 spec dont use turbo's! RRC spec uses 30mm restrictor
Ugh that mil-spec harness...
If all you have to keep from the road car is the block and the head, whats even the point? You might as well make a car from the ground up just for rallying, it's nearly like that anyways. These WRC cars have pretty much no relationship to the roads cars they're supposed to be based on. It's nothing like a Mini Countryman, its a specially made MINI John Cooper Works World Rally car wearing a Mini Countryman costume.
Some places let you race or build rally cars like group a but even then you are ripping out 80% of whatever car you use still
Oh I never knew the front of the Mini road car had a weak front end @ 00:44 the PR guy discusses how weak the car is at the front end and how they strengthen the weakness. Better not buy a mini road car in case I might crash it given its weakness... Facepalm
I don't know what if I hit a shopping trolley in a car park, the PR guys admits its weak.
no offence intended...just made me laugh.
May I suggest you look into Louise Cook?...she is a female british rally driver making a name for herself...she needs all the backing she can get and for people to aware she is out there! Think it be a great piece.
I thought it was against the rules to paint the rollcage.
Football manger any other person trying to the best they can and the pushed to bearking point you don't think of the stress it put on that person there family and other people that's not talking about the cash that gose on
How to make a car in nice.😁
Sj Riaz what?
400,000 that's an expensive mini lol
/me points at her : funny
Damn, 400000 pounds? 8 yrs ago
Rosanna i love you :l
i hate that here in america rallying isnt popular, instead evveryone wants to go in a circle or a straight line. damn people cant drive so they take the easy route lol. i want to build a group b spec car but nooo no where to race it againts anyone. im very disapointed
How's that Group B car?
It's weak FOR RALLYING. Unless you're planning on going full throttle on a bumpy gravel road, i think you'll be fine...
just like me, Rosanna Tennant has no frigging idea what this man is talking about, lol
Who is this chick? She is hot!
Wtf have they done with the engine :(
Dirt 3 anyone
Gee let me check... 400,000£. Pocket Change...
To the people all moaning about she does not know what she is on about. Who cares! The man is telling you. Let's have instead a really ugly woman who knows more about cars than any of us shall we? No!......,thought not
She's quite lovely though!
REAL RACING GURU I didn't search "how to build a rally car" because I wanted to listen to a pretty girl talk
I'd rather have someone knowledgeable that I can learn things from.. The appearance of that person doesn't really matter to me...
I guess the people who make car shows have guys like you in mind because they almost always seem to hire some blondie who knows absolutely nothing about cars and have her do the interviews.. She'll have some auto engineer explaining how an engine works and even though you already knew all the answers to what shes asking you guys are satisfied with it because shes nice to look at.
400,000 pounds :O
holly cheese
I want to marry whit this nice blonde girl !
Noisy anyway
il solito segaiolo da pc ;(
This explains me how bad are normal cars
Only 400.000 pounds :)))))))
Is she married??
That guy is so dry, use the £400k to buy a sense of humour!
Mini, haha you mean BMW
I fail to see what's wrong with that. Heck, it sometimes puts a smile on my face.
dude... thats woman logic xD
How to make a wrc rally car? That's an easy one you fools.Ofcaurse with money.
You might want to learn to spell before you start calling other people fools!
Who cares about bodyshell, when nothing else have much common with a roadcar. Modern cars are too crappy for rallying, and modern FIA regulations are too crappy to make this sport interesting again. In 70ties it was different. Rallycar was simply modyfied roadcar, with stronger engine, LSD and different gearbox. Rear wheel drive, low weight and big power made it spectacural as hell, and it was still just an imroved roadcar.
Forget this rubbish, bring back homologation (group a) cars like sierra and escort cosworth, delta integrale, celica gt4, mitsubishi evo, impreza, etc. Why bother to build a rally car for wrc if there isn't a road going equivalent. Manufacturers do it to advertise their cars but their road cars have nothing to do with the rally car.
Group 4 was brilliant
group a was brilliant
Group b was brilliant because they had too much power
Wrc is boring, its like group b without the power. With no power group b would have been boring too.
I agree..boring
+Antony Collingwood I think the FIA should bring back Group B cars with some safety regulations to make the WRC more interesting...
supertrix101 I can't see that ever happening again.
Group B is the best obviously but I like modern rally too. They haul ass even though the cars have less power. I think they can still go pretty fast because they don't have a clutch and an h pattern shifter? Less to think about.
PANTHERBURNS group a was my favourite era, modern wrc cars are very impressive as a piece of engineering but aren't impressive to watch, a highly modified integrale was incredible to watch, a h pattern box, 3 pedals, a car that is adapted for rallying is a lot better to watch than a car built for rallying. And it's more satisfying as i can go and buy one, own one. Not just make do with watching it on tv. I never wanted to just watch a cosworth, i wanted to own one, and we could. I want a wrc car but i can't have one because they don't make them.
one of the uglyest car what i ever see
dumbest comment u are😂 you
I can't believe how many comments about this girl. She's average at best. Having been to the UK tho I had noticed the level of beauty in the girls there was MUCH lower than in the US. I wonder why that is? Smaller gene pool for so much of its history perhaps? I now understand why they call their girls birds there lol. My colleagues there noticed it as well. When they spent a week here on business they went on and on about how beautiful Texas women are.
