Cant wait to see the wrc polo, but it kinda makes me think- compared with the ds3, fiesta, and the polo, will the countryman have a size and weight disadvantage?

By the time the Polo stars competing MINI should be fielding the 2-door Countryman, the Paceman.

The weight wont be a problem as the countryman is at the FIA minimum of 1200kg. The current polo is quite abit bigger than the previous model. You see one next to a mk2 golf and they are similar in size!

It's great to see more manufacturers back in Rally. Subaru just filed the R4 homologation papers so that's another big one. I'm just waiting on Toyota and a few other manufacturers to pull the trigger.
