got this from my bloomberg terminal at work (yes Im not working that much at the moment! lol):
París, 29 nov (EFE).- El piloto español Dani Sordo probará hoy un Mini WRC, que podría ser su nuevo equipo, tras su salida de Citroën, informa el diario "L'Équipe".
Sordo, que no tiene volante desde el final de la pasada temporada, se pondrá hoy a los mandos del Mini Countryman WRC de la escudería Prodrive.
El piloto español probará el coche primero sobre asfalto y, posteriormente, sobre tierra, en las pistas de Cerdeña, donde están teniendo lugar las pruebas.
Sordo será el segundo que pruebe el Mini en Cerdeña, donde también ha sido conducido por el norirlandés Kris Meeke, el único piloto oficial por el momento de la escudería.
Los ingenieros han añadido al coche un nuevo alerón y un paragolpes con respecto al prototipo que probó Markko Märtin hace unas semanas, indicó el rotativo. EFE

Tansalation:
Spanish diver Dani Sordo will test the Mini WRC, which could be his new team after his exit from Citroen, according to L Equipe. Sordo hasnt driven since the end of last season and will be driving today the Mini Countryman WRC from the team Prodrive. The driver will test the car first on tarmac and then on gravel, around Sardinia, where the tests are taking place.
Sordo will be the second driver testing the mini in Sardinia, where it has also been driven by northen ireland´s Kris Meeke, the sole official driver at the moment for the team. Team engineirs have added a new wing and bumper in relation to the prototipe that was tested by Markko Martin a few weeks ago.
With this I would say Sordo is there almost for sure.
Sordo is only doing research for his near future.
For the Ford drive Sordo has to pay (minimum 1,5 mln euro's) for 9 rallies.
Prodrive/Mini is willing to pay their drivers? And they will do minimum 6, maybe 9. Mini looks a more secure option, and Sordo could make the car to his own taste, were he has no influence on the Ford Fiesta WRCar
Rather, this is exactly Ford's Fiesta WRC wing. ;)Quote:

In fact, the aero package is far from being signed off, and the spoiler fitted here was simply a 2008 Subaru Impreza WRC item that the Prodrive technicians had lying around…
Here is Sordo in Sardinia
Has Sordo signed for Mini WRC?
