For me it isn’t strange. He has been driving since 4 years old and achieved already everything, can understand totally that he hasn’t got the motivation anymore
But I have to admit I’m surprised a little cause I didn’t believe the rumors

The fourth Toyota would be free to rent for the full year then?
We don't know which rallies someone is doing. Ogier and Rovanperä both with half-season does not mean they divide all the rallies, they may compete somewhere together as well.Quote:

At least I can’t see Ogier at those rallies.
And Japan for all the drivers I guess
I would add maybe Chile?
It also tells me there are too many rounds, too much travel and too much hassle being a factory driver!Quote:

I would not say too many. F1 has twice as much rounds but obviously right now rally takes a whole week to complete. Recce starts already monday/tuesday.
Why not Wednesday and Thursday for recce? Then Shakedown at friday morning, rally itself starts friday afternoon. Could easily run 300km. Friday 75 km, Saturday 150 and Sunday 75.
Throw in nightstages where possible and points for stages/legs and more tyre changes.
