Well now its weird that Tommi was talking that th offer is made and waiting for Tänak response, but if it was signed with Hyundai a month ago or more, then why to negotiate with Toyota and make Tommi believe that its still open.
Well atleast in "Ringvaade" Oleg didnt mention anything about how long he has known it.
He was asked whats next? Rumours say that he doesent continue with Toyota and will be joining Hyundai.
Oleg answered that he knows what Ott is doing but he is not the right person to say it and isnt authorized to tell it.
Could there be any links between ,,Malcolm's statement, that they don't chase Ott anymore'' and that Ott signed to Hyundai at the same time.
Was it around month or so ago..?
Would be fair for Wilson to know first about it..
If you mean these vids https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxzxoks6ubE. Then this was after the season had ended.
About testing with Hyundai, he himself hasnt tested it (as far as i now, but i cant be 100% sure but i doubt Toyota contract allows it) but it has been tested for him. (at least this is what i have heard)
I have info:
Tänak to Hyundai (deal done about a month ago)
Ogier to Toyota (some legal stuff still to be solved)

Okay it seems like i remembered wrong. In my head there were videos with mirrorglass white yaris and people tried to see from pictures in different angle throught windshield who was driving but, I think that was the case with Ogier when he finally setteled with Ford.
Well to be fair it was leaked to the public before either of the titles were decided and judging from what Ott, Colin Clark, Gross and many others have said it will be announced in the coming days (before the manufacturer's title is decided). With the resources the teams have it could have been done far more elegantly than to string Mäkinen along uselessly for months and keep him in the dark. That relationship will be ruined for good, no matter the explanation.
