No Latvala to Toyota. Even if I'd like to see him team up with Malcolm again, it'd so much more cool if Ogier would take the wheel of Blue Oval.

It's a pretty good bet. I just don't see the Ogier/Citroën deal happening, even though it would be the logical one. I am half French and in France Ogier isn't that popular and definitely nowhere near the Loeb status. Many see him as a bit of a traitor after the 2011 season and he's perceived as being quite arrogant. (and with a really bad taste in music after tweeting pics from a Nickelback concert ... yikes!)

I think Ogier would accept the M-Sport challenge if Malcom Wilson can make the right package around Ogier, with e.g. Tänak as team mate. And can you imagine the out-of-the-blue sponsorship package M-Sport suddenly would get if they have Ogier as their leading driver?

After 4 titles, Loeb was nowhere to, probably more famous becausePlaystation and Citroen did some adds with him but not a celebrity like now. He really became as famous as Parker or Manaudou after his 7th title in Alsace only
