He said he will do rallies next year, but sounded like full season is unsure.

So why Breen was unhappy when he got an offer to drive no.1 car in championship? Or he try continue to drive no.4 car and be dropped by team for any Loeb fun rally events?

Do you really believe that being a wingman of a French champ on a French team is a better position for Lappi? Btw, how can you be so sure about the money motivation without knowing (as most people and even the press) the real figures? Honestly I wish Lappi all the best in Citroen if he actually signs, but I doubt his motives are the ones you’re mentioning.
Most likely, Budar was just replying in a polite way; Ogier and Loeb running together will hardly happen again.Rally addict since 1982

Well he is either a wingman for Tanak or Ogier. I would choose Ogier and be number 2 over Tanak and JML if all things are equal. I think Toyota has the biggest budget and might have the best car at the moment so that would be a big thing to consider for the long run... It's obviously not an easy decision or we would have already heard from Lappi...

I have no idea. It's all pure speculation based on public info. After all this is silly season thread.
What I tried to point out is that even if the main motives are money and clear nr2 position it would be totally understandable and similar to Tänak's move a year ago. Risky for sure.
All 3 manufacturers are pushing for things to remain until the end of the 26. Not even the goons running the WRC will be stupid enough to push them out by forcing new regs for 25
