The first box shows the basic salaries, the second box the bonuses from wins.
From Miika Wuorela's Penkalla magazine.
Remember that Tänak's contract is from 2017 when he wasn't yet a championship contender. His value has increased considerably after that.
I'm guessing the base salary is per year and 1,2 mil per win? Meaning he's racked up at least 7.5 mil already this season?
No, it says total bonuses before rally Finland.
EDIT: This would mean Tänak gets 400 000 from a win, Neuville 500 000 and Ogier a million.
Lappi and Mikkelsen salarys are so high?
Good manager?Quote:

Have to remember when they were signed.Quote:

Mikkelsen got signed in 2017 either after Spain or GB, meaning right after he finished 2nd in Germany in C3 and then led Spain in his first day in the i20 and finished 4th in GB minutes ahead of Sordo/Paddon in same car. So at that point his value was quite high, matching this salary.
The biggest take there is how little money Evans gets, but again he was probably re-signed at end of last year when only good result was one podium from Spain and people wondering if he will continue at all.
I thought they signed him already before Spain for two yearsQuote:

So after Germany where he was 2nd ahead of Ogier and much faster than Meeke in same car.
