You'd be crazy to change Lappi for Huttunen or Ingram. Probably still a bit early for Lindholm or Rossel and Toyota does not need a new developing driver yet. Mikkelsen might be better allrounder, but not for fast gravel only. So there isn't really anyone to pick unless some massive disaster happens for Evans or Lappi.
Toyota does not need Tanak at this point at all either. And I would guess Japan has some bad feelings towards him.
It's MSport or Hyundai.
I think, it will impact the WEC program too, if Hyundai Motorsport uses same resource for WEC and WRC. I already read lots of facebook and reddit comments about Toyota who participate in WEC, WRC,...
