Landscape will be different for Latvala now. He will probably need to bring some budget to Msport, but he no longer can bring a return on any investment like a younger driver with potential could, and Jouhki's other drivers are Kalle (who will be at Toyota), and Suninen entering another season with Msport. They are his future concerns.
Maybe he could find some sponsorship from somewhere, but I doubt Jouhki will be stumping up cash for him like if he was one of his up and coming drivers. Would love to see Jari back at Msport alongside Evans and Suninen in a 3 car team, but I can imagine Greensmith will be bringing budget to run more events in the wrc next year as well (and who knows what Paddon is going to do on top of that).
So things could look tough for Jari's fulltime WRC future if Toyota are running Kalle in the main 3 car team next year, and Tommi isn't extending his stay there.
Saudi landscape is stunning, we all have seen that in Dakar. From Picture Perfect point of view - will be good. Diversity of scenery - also will be good. Might even collect many spectators. Might...
