Intresting times... Neuville ofcourse is a no-brainer, if he's available and willing to sign. It would also be a strange move to let Hänninen go, now that he's been the main test driver and knows the car and the rallies (just like Tommi mentioned in the Motorsport News article). There something "Meeke-esque" with Hänninen - he's proven he's fast (2014 Italy, Poland, Finland and during all those Skoda years) when given the right opportunity, but the breaktrough result hasn't materialized yet. IMO Hänninen needs (and deserves as well) one full season to make it or break it. If I was Tommi, in 2017 Neuville (or Tänäk or similar, the #1 driver) would start all rallies with Hänninen being in the second car. Then Lappi (or Tidemand or Suninen) could be entered in the third car once that set-up is ready.
