Can you confirm they did not offer him a drive?

I'm sure the VW drivers negotiated with all teams and Toyota had negotiations with a lot of drivers to find stars for their line-up. There's a video of Ogier testing the Yaris WRC, struggling on a slippery tarmac road, it's not hard to believe his comments about not liking the car. It's definitely improved a lot after JML joined the team, although I don't doubt for a second that Ogier couldn't have achieved the same.
