- Road test editor Dan Prosser drives the Mini Challenge at Brands Hatch.
Watch his race weekend from behind the wheel of the new F56 Mini Challenge race car, which uses the same 2-litre turbo engine as the Cooper S road car, but tuned up to 275bhp.

To not finish dead last, is great for a first try. Ending with a top ten position is fantastic. Congratulations!:-)
Loved the video, but it sure could have benefittet from more in-car video ;-)
Really enjoyed this video. More would certainly be welcome!
Beyond awesome video! Well done. I'm terribly jealous of your experience. I'm saving for a mini and all I can do at the moment is watch videos of them. Thanks again for the brilliant video.
"Only a real race driver knows the feeling" Well done bro you are now one of us.
excellent but wish you'd stretched out the footage for a longer upload :(
Videos are getting better and better Dan. Congrats on the result, bet it's a rush and a half.
Well done Dan. Looks like loads more fun than a track day
Love coopers. Totally underrated vehicles. Rather have one of these than a lambo. I just got carbon fiber trim on mine
Fantastic stuff, can feel your joy from here good work
Racing addict. Yeah, I could see how that would be addicting.
Good video and good job Dan. You'll get there sooner or later. Well done.
Awesome video. Would have loved to watch the full race though!
Nice driving mate, Awesome video.
That mini looks like it’s been through hell and enjoyed every minute of it!
Good work dude! Keep going
Fantastic vid
great video!
Great video and all but it would have been nice to hear about what it takes to be driving i this series and what a budget team could race a season on what kind of cash.
Damn, would be lovely to watch this full ride onboard. I wouldn't lose any second. Some possibility, Evo?
Great run! What racing suit is that?
Great video
Awesome!!!
very nice Dan. 1.40s not to be sniffed at. V fast! F56's look like a step forward for sure.
where are the more videos about this great angles and a fun normal car turned into a track monster
Those hands never drop...
Looks like some weird WWII Japanese prison camp punishment.
Nice video! Thanks for sharing that experience. To be honest you could have done a 15min feature on it. I think you had enough content no?
Nice entry into surtees at 5:56.
Excellent experience!! I wish some team could give me a chance like that!! I will not disappoint them!!
Instead of all this flappy paddle bullshit, sequentials should be offered as an option. They look like there fantastic.
+Mr.K definitely a fantastic option for a road car if you like replacing your transmission every few thousand miles
+Adam Kelnhofer aaaaahhh just for racing applications then, always wondered why sequential never made it to road cars.
Just realised I've raced that track in project cars 2
how would a racing lover get his hands on a mini challenge car? just wondering
wouldn´t have minded some more in-car footage either (a full lap also!), but nice to watch!
Only chassis i actually like from mini is the R56
R53s and jcw chassis and r56/r55 jcw chassis is amazing too
Sweet
Mini is best!
He said 2.0 turbo, is that correct?
I thought the car would use the 1.6 turbo engine??
No the newer ones are 2ltre need it for all that extra bulk . They have got pretty bloated. Not really any quicker the the 1.6 though just better fuel economy, there more the everyday person car now than the drivers car. R53 allday for me
minilove
@kenzil Couldn't agree more. Only Koenigsegg offer it on their cars
Where can I buy the big rear spoiler that you've got on your mini ? Thanks
Oranjje something like that th8nk it's called a g wing
I think there is a Japanese company that make custom parts for minis and I think it’s called Dwell but more sure
:'3 so cute
I want to do this
So can like anyone just enter?
Jealousy ‘‘tis a bitch. Wish it was me ✌🏻
strange that its based on the Cooper S F56 and not the JCW F56...?
+Matt McP they are the same chassis., the JCW F56 just gets a tuning package with more turbo boost, exhaust, intake and other bits. F56 is the chassis code meaning the JCW F56 is based on the Cooper S F56 which is based on the Cooper F56.
+Adam Kelnhofer JCW has bigger turbo and forged internals
Does BMW still own the Mini brand? I thought he said it has a Cupra engine. Wouldn't that make it a VAG engine?
jolmeaki He said Cooper S engine I think
Tom Richards Makes sense. Thanks.
E to the V to the O...
Why is the front all taped up?
Aerodynamic advantage
Autograss100 Actually after seeing the video, it's because he crashed another car.
Ric Rac I think its to do with the incident he had on practice/qualy.. he banged up the front end.. Tape was there to help aero on the bang up parts I would assume.
The tape looks good on it. It's dank.
I can't imagine being In a country where everyone speaks like him :/
not so mini anymore, thought it was paceman at first glance, i miss the good old mini
Tjey have got a bit fat. Ive got a first gen r53 and when i park next to a newer mini they look more like suvs
Mini had to got a bit bigger for safety issues, still the only one of its class and safe

First
Pk incorect?
