My guess:
If Toyota can pay enough to get through the contract and pay Ogier, then it happens. No smoke without fire, they are taking.
If that happens, Citroen leave right now.
The only way they can keep Ogier is by committing more budget to R&D and a third car. Seb wants the big wage and the full support. So now discussions are happening to secure the funds. Ogier using a Toyota offer as bait.
Problem is, it couldn't come at a worse time within PSA politically. Bad move, a big risk.
If Citroen leave: Ogier, Evans, Rovanpera, Katsuta at Toyota
If Citroen stay: Same Citroen lineup, but with a third car Ostberg/Camilli, then Evans, Meeke, Rovanpera, Katsuta at Toyota.Last edited by BobJones; 16th November 2019 at 08:49.

Interesting, a firm rumoured to exit (or reorganize to customer operations), with an excellent car, many clients wants to pay a big salary. Well. ok, development driver then. Probably similar deal from Hyundai also on the table, with a possibility of some WRC outings.

Oliver sure, but I find it a bit hard to believe they will be (very) interested in Breen. Then again it depends what you define as "big" cheque I guess.
As to their stay, it would make sense if they decided to go for the 2022 hybrid rules, starting development mid next year would fit.

Considering the possible Ogier-Evans-Rovanperä lineup, they would all be Red Bull athletes already...

Keith Cronin just took a huge 18.2 sec out of both Devine & Edwards on SS4 ! Edwards says that's mental and Keith is a special talent.
