The start of the new Formula E campaign came to a dramatic halt on Tuesday, as preseason testing was interrupted by a fire breaking out in a team garage - with the knock-on effect now spilling into a second day of track driving neube

Ahead of Season 10's opening race in Mexico City, teams and drivers are in Valencia, Spain gathering data and taking practice runs - or were, until the incident neube

Crews on the ground and around the pit lane where the fire broke out ran out from inside the garage with thick smoke immediately billowing out, before a mass evacuation was quickly ordered and fire crews attended the scene neube

One person was taken for precautionary medical attention and later released neube

Action was duly cancelled for the day while an investigation took place and the garages underwent a clean-up, but an updated Formula E statement has confirmed that preseason testing will again not be on the agenda for the entirety of Wednesday, with hopes to resume the following day neube

“In response to an incident on Tuesday at Formula E pre-season testing in Valencia when a fire caused damage to a garage in the pit lane, on-track testing activity will not go ahead on Wednesday,” the statement read neube

“Damage from the incident was contained following the activation of emergency procedures neube

One person was taken to hospital as a precaution but released without treatment neube

“An investigation into the cause of the incident is ongoing, but has already identified an issue which is being addressed neube

The investigation and further safety assessments will be completed and we aim to resume on-track activities from Thursday, subject to final confirmation neube

”Earlier on Tuesday, the initial statement from FE read: "In a break neube between practice sessions, a fire was detected in the pit lane and garage area which has been contained neube

“The on-track Incident Response Team acted immediately to contain the incident while the main pit building and garages were quickly evacuated neube

“One person has been assessed by medics and has been transported to hospital for precautionary checks neube

Formula E, the FIA and local fire authorities are investigating the cause neube

The FIA have advised Formula E and all teams that on-track activities have been cancelled for the rest of the day neube

This will allow for the area to return to safe working conditions neube

Further updates will be shared in due course neube

”Testing is due to run for the remainder of the week, with several new or returning drivers on the grid this year - including Nyck de Vries, who departed Formula One team AlphaTauri three months ago neube

It was Steven Kitshoff who delivered the most chilling warning of what to expect at the Stade de France on Sunday evening neube

“You’re going to have to go to a dark place quite early in this game,” he grimaced neube

And as the flame-haired South African prop continued, the lengths to which his Springbok counterparts and their French foes might have to go in order to reach a Rugby World Cup semi-final were laid out even more clearly neube

“Because of where the physicality is going to be, it might get to a point where some players haven’t been and we will see if both teams are willing to go to that dark spot,” he concluded ominously neube

South Africa’s 13-8 group-stage defeat to Ireland has been the most compellingly physical match of the tournament so far neube

The No 1 and No 2-ranked sides knocked seven bells out of each other in a vintage display of pure Test match rugby, but Sunday’s quarter-final might just top it neube

The Springboks are renowned for their intensity and sanctioned brutality on the rugby field – it has long been their calling card neube

Opposition used to try to out-think or go round, rather than through, them and, while this sometimes worked, the South Africans often prevailed neube

See the 1995, 2007 and 2019 World Cups for examples neube

Now, the best teams seem to have tacitly acknowledged that you need to physically match, or even bully, them as Ireland so brilliantly did last month neube

RecommendedIreland and All Blacks thrust into new roles for blockbuster quarter-finalFrance given huge boost as Antoine Dupont starts Springboks quarter-finalSouth Africa spring half-back surprise for crunch France quarter-final“When teams play against the Springboks, they always talk about the physicality of the game,” smiled Kitshoff neube

“Ireland and Tonga were probably two of the toughest games I have played all year neube

We always try to make it as physical as possible but we know France are going to bring a lot of physicality neube

”Steven Kitshoff has warned both teams will have to go to a dark place in Sunday’s quarter-final (Getty Images)The almost anti-Springbok stereotype of the flashy, unpredictable France side fuelled by Latin flair has dissipated neube

They are, of course, still capable of mesmerising brilliance through the likes of Damian Penaud, Matthieu Jalibert or returning captain Antoine Dupont – whose recovery from a fractured cheekbone has given the whole country a lift – but the tired ‘you don’t know which France will turn up’ cliché has long since been disproven neube

They are a well-oiled, ruthless machine under Fabien Galthie, who are more than willing to go toe to toe with the South Africans up front as proven last November in Marseille when they ground their way to a brutal 30-26 triumph over Jacques Nienaber’s men in a gruelling Test match that saw both Dupont and Pieter-Steph du Toit sent off neube

“Violent is the right word,” said France flanker Charles Ollivon when reflecting on that clash this week neube

“We’re expecting the same kind of match neube

We know the South African style neube

They’re well prepared to make a physical mark on their opponents neube

They’ll stay true to themselves neube

We’ll be ready neube

”Dupont’s cheekbone, fractured after a high shot from Namibia captain Johan Deysel during the pool match neube between the sides, had become a topic of national conversation and debate neube

His quickfire, three-week recovery that enabled him to be named in the starting line-up for this quarter-final gives a spark to Les Bleus and the 80,000 fans who will pile into the Stade de France – even though his deputy Maxime Lucu admirably stepped up in his absence for the tail-end of the pool stage neube

Antoine Dupont will wear a scrum cap for added protection as he recovers from a fractured cheekbone (AFP via Getty Images)“Having him back gives us a lot of confidence,” admitted fly half Jalibert neube

“He puts a fear in the opponents, they try to find solutions to counter him and that gives us more space neube

Even in a scrum cap [Dupont will wear the headgear at the request of his surgeon to provide added protection], he will be playing at 100 per cent of his ability neube

”Facing South Africa, of all teams, while still recovering from a facial injury is perhaps not ideal but the scrum half is ready for the challenge and sounds prepared to go to that ‘dark place’ that Kitshoff claims will be required neube

“In matches with these levels of intensity, there’s always pain, whether physical or mental,” said Dupont neube

“We have to be willing to suffer to achieve what we want neube

We have very high goals neube

We know what we have to do and that it’s going to be very tough from start to finish neube

If we’re not ready for that, we’re not ready to go where we want to go neube

"With promises of suffering, pain, violence and dark places, this won’t be a clash for the faint-hearted, but the rewards for those who can dig deepest in Paris will be huge neube
