Great disappointment about Bouffier but hopefully it means he can save the money for a different round instead. I expect he will try for Corsica?

Breen confident after test :)
Craig said he wasn’t surprised that he was able to make “big strides” during a pre-event test ahead of round four of the FIA European Rally Championship this week.
He sampled his Peugeot Rally Academy 207 Super 2000 on gravel for the first time during a pre-rally test session on Monday, “It was my first time driving the car on gravel and I was really happy with how the it behaved. I won’t say I was surprised because I knew it would be good but everything worked really well and we made some big strides with the set-up of the car. Everyone was working really hard – it was one of those days when you change something it’s better and you don’t have to go round in circles trying to find a solution. The weather was not perfect but it looks like it will be the same for the rally.”
Breen has never competed in the Açores before and said the test had provided a timely confidence boost. “It was a bit of an unknown quantity coming here,” said the Irish ace. “I didn’t know what to expect from the car or the rally and I’m feeling a hell of a lot more confident now...”
Go Craig !! :bounce:

Dear portuguese boys, are there any archives on the RTP.pt pages when we can found record with this city stage? No problem if released with 24 hours delay whatever but I would like to see that. (and I will face this problem again in saturday, damned girlfriend with her mountain bike :D ) Thanks a lot in advance.
Crews given another pass of recce through the stages that suffered from extreme fog yesterday. Kubica was prepared not to start without the extra pass:

What happened with the airline strike?
SS1 Coroa da Mata could be cancelled. The drivers repeated the recce of this stage this morning, but it was covered with fog again. Moreover, the conditions of the road at the last part of the stage are bad.
organiseres gave the Teams extra time to recce, but the roads are so deep, it is impossible to drive...info from Team neubauer!
According to PLuto Bouffier will not start - engine failure.
