    C'mon Seb is onboard. Even if he do a bad rally he takes maximum out of it. Except the car is really that shit that Ogier will struggle a lot with him but Meeke, Loeb, Breen, Ostberg, Lefebvre, Mikkelsen did a pretty solid results with that car, sometimes even exceptional. 2020 is far away and a lot can happen during that time. Novadays is nothing for granted. Even Safari rally isn't sure if it will be on calendar. You don't know what will happen until then.

    I'm more inclined to think with Loeb possibly coming in for more rallies, and with maybe breen and Ostberg in the picture for that shared 3rd car on remaining rallies, the sheikh was probably offered far less seat time, so pulled the plug.
    Wouldn't be surprised if he rocked up in a fiesta next year.

    I saw picture with test car on Reiger.
    And was reading their main focus during gravel test with Ogier was on dampers.
    Looking for more informations now.

    Red Bull are following Ogier, so would be the main sponsor on his car, therefore not so much room for 'Abu Dhabi'.

    Exactly, why I'm not convinced they'll be back with Citroen in 2020.
