    But in Mexico that has happened for years now...
    Mainly last year this happened. The steges between Saturaday & Sunday were repeated to a large extent
    This year SS20 Alfaro use part of SS12/15 Otates

    I guess, it's about not repeating the full stage

    That's what I thought as well but the quote from the rules says otherwise. Maybe it's a waiver like Monte Carlo can have Thursday stages and Tour de Corse doesn't have to have a super special...

    In addition to Suninen not getting any testing, Ogier and Evans were testing in temperature as low as 10 °C, whereas Mexico will be a lot hotter.

    Sounds like Evans got the best test of the M-Sport's. It will be interesting to see if he can challenge here with a good road position (and now on Michelins !)
