In my opinion, for (some of the influential) Finns at TGR, Tänak was not much more than a placeholder for the future superstar Rovanperä. It just so happened that he became a superstar in his own right and delivered the titles Toyota were looking for. This suspicion aligns with the fact that the Japanese were interested in keeping Tänak (obviously), but the Finns dragged their feet and openly showed their distaste for him. They were never going to treat him like a champion as Rovanperä was always set to be the future of Toyota. Given that Rovanperä has done 0 WRC rallies and the world champion is gone, the vision is starting to collide with reality and they are on thin ice. This speculation is based on the Evans article.
