    Last year, Neuville (Sordo too) tested in the stage where Ogier was today. I didn't like too much where I saw him, so today I went to its second part. This is a proper stage, very similar to the roads of the Rally of Portugal (in fact, Ponte de Lima stage is less than one kilometre far from where M-Sport tested today). Very fast zones and surrounded by trees, soft gravel and a lot of dust. Due to the problems during the morning, I went there only in the afternoon. About 16-18 runs between 4 and 6 PM. These pics show some of them, not the best ones because those were the flat out places where it's better watch than click buttons.

    Yes! Only stopped to normal changes in test sessions.

    The afternoon went normal, Ogier's problems ended in the morning. He was really angry when the car failed again. I heard some rumours about pieces of the car (demanded by him) that M-Sport was testing, which it's obvious aren't still ready to use. In the afternoon he did the usual four runs and stops between them (I believe there was only one occasion when he only run twice).
    I forgot to ask if Evans will test tomorrow as it's believed. I suppose I'll know it before heading there in the afternoon.
