    I don't think it took any stretch of the imagination or insight to work out Andreas had a Hyundai contract coming after they pushed aside Paddon for him and let him drive the final three rounds of the season.

    True, not much fun reading the forum that way

    I think it was revealed by Yves Matton that Mikkelsen has a contract for next season with Hyundai. At least I wasn't surprised a bit, except maybe for a full two year contract before driving any rallies with them.

    Agree. It's a British journalist writing for a British publication; what do they expect? Unlike a lot of countries, WRC in the UK is basically invisible - if it wasn't for these articles there would be nothing. And I say that as someone who isn't the biggest fan of David Evans.

    Come on, it's the height of the silly season, no rallies going on, everyone's speculating. At least here on the forum most people have given opinions, hopes and interpretations of interviews, it's all in good fun. I'm enjoying it at least.

    Anyway, to me it now seems Tanak is leaning towards MSport. It would probably be good for him to spend at least another year in the car he knows and developed, then Ogier refined. It will probably be competitive next year as well, at worst it could get a bit outdeveloped and be a bit behind in the 2nd half of the year, but even so it shouldn't be too far.

    Tanak to Toyota and Seb to Citroen will see the Msport fans on here in meltdown.

    The French! Apparently they are in a close competition with Brit fellows on this silly season scoop search. L’Equipe talked once more with Matton; the Belgium mentioned the deal with Ogier isn't done yet and that Ogier is still discussing with other teams. Besides MSport, the L’Equipe journo reveals the other team is…Hyundai! Yep, now it’ll be hard for the Brits to get more absurd than this…

    IMO there’s only one reasonable way to see all this: Ogier has already signed with Citroen; the deal will be only revealed after Australia; meanwhile Matton will continue to mock press members from both sides of the channel...

    Yeah, agree with that.

    Very unlikely Matton or Ogier will say they have a deal before one or both championships are decided.
