Already after Finland, when he also had a discount sale but for all the stuff, a Belgian site speculated based on that fact that Tänak could be leaving

He has had A discount sale after every win this season but yeah interesting that this time only for Hyundai stuff

We can really wondering what is going on with the main Hyundai WRC team and what the meaning is of the RedGrey Team (= Ott Tänak and Markko Märtin) is in the whole story. Could it possible that both Tänak and Märtin are also aiming at taking control of the main Hyundai WRC team?

Interesting tought, actually.
Markko Märtin as teamboss, how would that hit on the driver lineup?

Ott as nr1, but the rest?

Indeed that's a new idea (to me at least).

How much "managing" has Martin done at any point? (I have no idea, just asking). Might be a bit strange that a current (or former in that case) manager of the main driver will be team boss.

On the other hand at Toyota Latvala who was always managed by Jouhki is now the boss of Rovanpera also managed by Jouhki.

I remember reading somewhere that Hyundai wasn't happy with RedGrey, especially after problem with Sunninen's car in Finland, and the "works" Rally2 car would be run in-house. Sorry, but I can't find/remember where I read this...

Well. If they terminate that Redgrey deal, then i might believe that Tänak to M Sport stuff

So after all the clarifying and rumors we now have two complete opposites with Tanak leaving and Redgrey ending on one side and Redgrey+Martin taking over whole Hyundai.

Mäkinen was also managered by Jouhki

One thing I can not imagine - Märtin as a team boss == public face, giving interviews etc. Märtin is like shadow for media, he is somewhere, doing something, but mostly avoiding cameras.

Interesting idea anyway :)

Märtin as a team boss is a no go.
I don't think this idea will suit koreans as well the french speaking at HSMG.
