Apparently Toyota will announce their WEC driver lineup on 19th November after rally Japan finishes. I assume that's when they will announce the WRC lineup as well.
rumor is that Rovanpera signed 2 more years with an option for a 3rd.
Lappi told Motorsport.com that he had asked Hyundai for a part-time programme for next year.
“I did request a long time ago already to do a part-time if it could be possible and the reason for that is that with my personal life, it has been quite challenging to manage everything when I am away all the time.

Although i also doubt lappi would request a partial season, it could kinda make sense. He must have realized that he will never become champion, so winning rallies could be easier if he can get good road position due to skipping events.
These japanese roads are probably the most uninteresting venue for a rally event. It's gonna be a long and boring weekend
