So many variables, and things up in the air.

So Tanak is seemingly off to Toyota; can you blame him? He’ll be paid as a top line driver and will hopefully get up to speed with the car & team pretty quickly. However, he is walking away from a known strong package; pretty fast everywhere, and reasonably reliable.

I don’t expect Ford Performance to back M-Sport, though I hope I’m incorrect. What is particularly galling, is that a top team, and likely double World Champions can’t attract a major big money sponsor. Something is wrong, and maybe outside the sport it’s still viewed as ‘unattractive’ which seems ridiculous.
