[WRC] News & rumours (part IV) 2016

[Simmi]

I think the termination of the contract is part of the same process that saw the factory team close down. Not too much to read into that - had to be done eventually.

Ogier with important meeting today.
Tommi don't wait Ogier sign anymore.

[EstWRC]

Seriously, why it takes so long? I'm getting angry already, lol.

[Andre Oliveira]

Maybe only tomorrow

The team toyota great racing, no longer believes in the runway Sébastien Ogier, that's what they claimed yesterday in corsica in any case, they were seeing him now at m sport.

i say M-sport definitely now after reading this:

Ogier has been impressed by the M-Sport chief's enthusiasm.

"Malcolm has made it clear it's his priority to work with us and this is something playing in his favour," Ogier said.

"You like to have people who are very clear and very motivated to work with us."

Sebastien Ogier will decide between two options for his World Rally Championship future this week.

Nice to see confirmation that Ogier has driven the Yaris on gravel and wasn't too much a fan of it on tarmac. Horses mouth.

Interesting about Ogier about the Yaris:

"It was not so good on Tarmac, I agree, but it was better on gravel," he said.

"It was very slippery, so it doesn't help to show the potential, but also in these conditions you can quickly tell what's wrong with the car."
