Citroën (Loeb&Ogier) is testing in Finland at the moment. I'll see if I can make my way to the tests during the next weekend and perhaps provide some visual material.

N.O.T, referring to the “Driving style evolution” thread you can also see on this video that the front wheels are pointing straight, no RWD driving style.

So, of works teams, is it next week Mini (w/ car that is going to used in Rally Estonia) and then Ford starting next weekend or so?

Ogier has crashed his car today while testing! Both Ogier and Ingrassia are ok, but they can't continue testing anymore.

Mtv3 has some more information:

Better to test crashing at tests than at races. Glad they're both okey.

I was also watching Ogier's test and shoot some photos in that corner when he crash his car.
It was his second run in that road (they changed test road just before that)
Ogier was nearly off road in first run in that same place. In second run he had no other chance than to pull the handbrake and rest is history...
We drove the test stage and his lines were same in other 2-3 corners. A lot of loose gravel and he had been a little bit off the road in two places. Nearly managed to clear one bridge wooden rail.

Citroen Team started to repair car (one broken damper and windscreen) and i think they maybe try to continue test. Better to test, because car wasn't good in loose gravel!!

edit: car started to fire after it was turned back on wheels. Team emptied one carbon dioxide fire extinguisher to the engine room. Oils were leaking propably on the top of the turbohttp://www.sanakirja.org/search.php?id=216018&l2=17
