I shot that picture for Mikkelsen and the company who built his website after VW pulled out of WRC, so it's an old picture.

Big money has been required for this switcharound ...
"According to the finely informed Helsingin Sanomat Finns, there is a clause in Ogier's contract with Citroën that prevented the Frenchman from competing for another team in 2020 if he did not want to stay at Citroën . It could 'retire' but could not switch teams.
Thus, Toyota will have to pay the unbundling of Sébastien Ogier, and according to Helsingin Sanomat this amount will be between 4 and 5 million euros. Plus the salary. Therefore operation Ogier will not go far from the 10 million euros. But Citroën, even receiving compensation, will also have strong amounts to pay Lappi and the WRC Promoter."#M-SPORTER

Again, the source is this one article in Helsingin Sanomat, which had many other proven errors, so I don't believe that without confirmation.
The journalist who wrote that article is also writing Tommi Mäkinen's autobiography, if that makes it more credible or not...
EDIT: Mäkinen says in YLE interview that they did not buy Ogier outLast edited by AnttiL; 27th November 2019 at 11:30.

I wonder if Tänak has already been in the factory and seen the car too? Like Ogier and Evans.. Hyundai only announced it thru socialmedia posts, but not a whole line-up in a factory or smth

So, 2020 season will be only 3 constructors? Assuming M-Sport will chip in...
