So many variables, and things up in the air.
So Tanak is seemingly off to Toyota; can you blame him? He’ll be paid as a top line driver and will hopefully get up to speed with the car & team pretty quickly. However, he is walking away from a known strong package; pretty fast everywhere, and reasonably reliable.
I don’t expect Ford Performance to back M-Sport, though I hope I’m incorrect. What is particularly galling, is that a top team, and likely double World Champions can’t attract a major big money sponsor. Something is wrong, and maybe outside the sport it’s still viewed as ‘unattractive’ which seems ridiculous.

If Ogier is available, Toyota may jump in. Even if Tommi doesn't get along with him, big bosses may push for it. I think is Japan vs. S. Korea kind of thing, and whoever gets Ogier will have big advantage. It will be bad for Tanak of course (or maybe not).

Japan vs Korea is a huge thing for Toyota high ups. Not so much the Tommi’s crew since they do not know about the history and rivalry between the two.
