MINI Olympic Commercial Urges ‘Winning Small’

It urges viewers to “win small,” saying that “small victories are always sweeter.” The message isn’t really clear, though. It would if it were directed at a smaller country, but with athletic legends like Michael Phelps, who stands to break the record for holding the most Olympic medals of any athlete in history, probably wouldn’t agree.
