Not necessarily. Lappi earns his living by driving a rally car and in such matters money usually plays a big role. I don't think WRC drivers are any different on that. Like in all sports, you should earn enough money to cover your needs for years to come in relatively short period of time. And in that sense, it sure makes difference whether you make 300k€ or 500k€ per year. Those amounts are ofcourse hypothetical, but if the gap between the offers from Toyota and Citroen is even close to that, all the other features suddenly don't mean so much anymore.

For me the teams should be like this:
Toyota Tanak, JML, Tidemand
Hyunday Neuville, Mikkelsen, Sordo
Citroen Ogier, Lappi, Breen
Msport Meeke, Suninen, Paddon
Third drivers can be diffrent.
I would like to see the (in my opinion) 4 fastest drives in four diffrent teams.

Maybe Skoda will step up for the big trophy and Volkswagen will debut (even if they say they will not compete with contructors) in WRC2. I mean it's possible. If they dominate that world too they could sell a huge amount of Polos across the world. I think that Proton will not be in WRC2 because everything shuts down at the moment, at least for the media. Polo have a huge development and is practically mentioned every week somewhere, on the other side that little Iriz is meant for nationals only like Mirage and Corsa (if they will build one).
I hope that this news brings one more to the game, and I really hope that then one of them will not pull out from sport. M-Sport or Citroen (if they don't get Ogier).

you do realize that the power form the hybrid unit is not constant... It's there only for very short periods. So for a first time out it won't make a big differance
