Hyundai WRT

Lappi is probably the best Hyundai could hope with Tanak leaving, considering Evans is under contract. Strange to see Lappi leaving but the situation was not that clear at Toyota, maybe it makes the difference with a straightforward full-time offer from Hyundai. Maybe some pressure in the Japanese side for Katsuta or the discussion about Tanak within the organization. And if Tanak not going to Toyota, it’s the best way to balance a bit the manufacturers.

Let’s see then for the 3rd driver but Sordo/Breen or Sordo/Mikkelsen would be the best.
Let’s see also how Toyota will counter this.

And Lappi clearly was !

In case there's any doubt I'm having quite some fun with this silly season ;)

So when it will be confirmed that Lappi joins Hyundai, then he will be eating his own words about the remark he made rather sitting at home before driving for hyundai

I think that was said on purpose to get the heat off from linking him to Hyundai.

Yeah I’m happy thanks for asking :)

According to Motorsport Italy, Breen returns to Hyundai

https://it.motorsport.com/wrc/news/w...een-/10394680/

If all rumors related to Suninen, Lappi and Breen to Hyundai, I guess there is no place for Sordo then. In case Sordo actually wants to drive next season, I can not see any of the "new ones" do (clearly) better than Sordo.

... and I can already hear in my head Lappi's stage end a-bit-wining-toned-interviews, "yaa, yaa, it is like it is, I can not do any better".
