What I meant was that the course would likely have been designed to play up the Mini's strengths and downplay any weaknesses versus a course designed more generically, which would in turn likely make its competitors look that much worse...
Iit'd be like throwing a mid-szed car on that course... the mid-sizer would likely lurch & lean in the sharper curves like a drunk on free beer night unless the car was an uber-pimp model...

IMHO the course doesn't matter. if they threw a WRX in there it would roll like a boat and depending on driving style it would understeer like crazy. that doesn't change the fact it is extremely capable and easy to drive fast.
i dont think you can't hide the stuff that matters.. i think the most you can do with course design is add more straights to let the high hp cars get better raw times.
