It may not be his decision...
I mean, there are two horrible scenarios that would require him stepping out
1. Toyota wants Ogier
2. Toyota wants a Japanese driver

Well Mikkelsen was No.3 driver in VW with very good results...
But I agree. it´s tough choice.
Paddon to Toyota, that would be so great, Ott and Hayden in the same team just like in Pirelli star driver years. Car would suit him, same driving style and a good market for 4wds in NZ for Toyota, only catch is the Hyundai NZ thing...
I'm sure Mäkinen will do everything he can to keep Lappi, even over Latvala, but it will also depend on the higher-ups decisions. Toyoda seems like the kind of guy who respects the sport, I'm just hopeful that he respects the sport enough to not let Ogier into the team.
maybe have a look at average points per P1 start then reconsider bargaining power
