I believe he never even tried, but the Spanish media made a thing out of it (again local media wanted to make a big story about local driver)

I believe Jouhki knows much more than he says. Why would he tell media when he has interests in drivers?

But if you guys think he hasn´t talks with most of the people involved in WRC and he also has ears, you´re definately wrong. So he knows plenty, but says only what suits best to media if he says anything at all...

Apparently Tänak made his decision to leave Toyota after Wales, having see how much Hyundai had progressed.

That he said pretty much after the deal went public. And well, they certainly have progressed a lot...

Question how much of the apparent progress was due to Toyota getting slower with smaller wing. Compared to Citroen and especially Evans in Ford they didn't seem much faster. (Evans was the fastest WRC both on Saturday and Sunday when Tänak and Neuville were fighting for every second).

In the end the reason shouldn't matter for Tanak as long as Hyundai and Toyota have similar speed.

Msport with Breen,Ostberg and Suninen is not so bad team afterall. Fiesta as we know is fast and very reliable.

Mads is a very likeable guy, consistent and somewhat fast, but he will never be winner material. 117 WRC starts in a WRC car, and only 1 win, that was not really a win. Why would Msport consider Mads over the obvious ones like Latvala, Lappi and Mikkelsen for instance?

Cause Mads can easily bring budget.
