I don't think Toyota has any chance to get Ogier. He wants to win, not to develop a car the maybe one day could win rallies...

Confirmed by the guy who shot today’s video - it was Sébastien Ogier driving the Yaris WRC.
Watch the video several times and evaluate every detail. First impression to watch the video is not woooo, but if we evaluate every detail, conditions of the road the conditions of the time. . . Defenitively there is some level. And the driving is different from what we've seen so far in the Yaris.
Has that Toyota even been tested on wet tarmac before? That's a serious question btw

Would be a perfect challenge for Ogier to go with Toyota.
Almost like Rossi going with Yamaha a few years back!
looks like real understeer on wet asphalt.
guess he also want to take it for a spin on gravel as well!
Ogier doesn't need another challenge to build up another team, he needs a fast car with a nice friendly reliable team
I believe that's ogier when I see pictures/vids of him next to the car. One YouTube uploader claiming it is doesn't make it so. For some reasons the white Yaris is always faster than the camo one... different test programs I'm sure but still.Quote:

Ogier should therefore have enough information to make a decision between those two teams or take a blind chance and go to Citroen if the offer exists, but probably with less negotiability.Quote:
