    I can't see Loeb wanting to come back full time, especially to a so-far unconvincing programme like this.

    Instead of looking to the past i think Toyota should take one current safe pair of hands (Ostberg), one of their test drivers who deserves a proper chance (Hänninen) and one young gun to build for the future (Tidemand)

    Come on guys, this is just Autosport taking WRC silly season to a whole new level…after the alleged Citroen/Loeb divorce now it’s the ‘guess who at Toyota’s seat’ novel. At least their rally journo manages to provide material for great jokes!

    On a more serious note, in this week MM issue (page 78) http://digital.motorsportmonday.com/...f-0cee80d9f456 there’s a nice talk with Erik Veiby (Even owner). It seems Lappi will be available for manus offers in 2017, and as VW’s seats will probably be occupied by current owners, he may have to look elsewhere...

    I guess it'll also depends on his performance this year, because last year was not very good for him. On this basis VW would like to keep their drivers, also Makkinen said himself is interested in him, so this is likely to happen.

    Seems ambitious, especially as they don't have a car yet.
