Erm Kalle....
Suninen is at Msport next year.

Hyundai - Neuville, Tanak, Loeb/Sordo. Breen will maybe do Finland and GB + R5 development & WRC2.
Toyota - Meeke, Evans, Rovanpera. Katsuta in 4th car for most events.
Citroen - Ogier, Lappi & maybe Ostberg doing selected events. Another R5 campaign for the rest.
Msport - Suninen, Greensmith + anyone who will drive for free/ bring budget.
Out - Latvala (bar maybe a 1 off appearance).
In a worrying position - Mikkelsen and Paddon ( although you'd wonder why Malcolm wouldn't give either a drive to replace Evans).
Better to have some slow crash prone rich father kid and stick with him full seasons like 3 or more years. Evans and Tanak was dropped immediately while some others don't. I mean Suninen and Greensmith. They are nowhere
At M sport they would be glad to welcome Jari Matti I think, to replace Evans
Latvalla 1st driver, whit some extra funds from Jari himself
Suninen 2nd driver, another "investment" year
3th driver could be Andreas, whit his own funds, partial program.
Greensmith wil also drive for them, but I don't think it will be for the whole championship.
So, in best case (most equal teams whit the free seats available )
Hyundai Tanak, Neuville, Loeb, Sordo, Breen
Citroën, Ogier, Lappi, Ostberg
Toyota Evans, Meeke, Rovanpera, Katsuta
Msport Latvalla, Suninen, Mikkelsen, Greensmith
