He has already won titles with different manufacturers unlike Loeb and this year he has beaten Loeb directly in 2 rallies (in Mexico Loeb got puncture just as Ogier was closing on him and in Corsica Loeb crashed from behind Ogier).

So if he also beats Loeb in Catalunya and gets a new title. It's quite possible he'll leave.

On the other hand I also think there might be a (very) slim hope of him going to Citroen if Breen/others finish on podium in 1-2 more rallies and Citroen goes in properly. Also considering that Matton is now gone.
You're not considering the amount of millions he gets every year if he drives.
Imo if he will stop it will not be because of his choice but because other will not sign him.

I wonder why nobody would do that btw, Mirek what makes you think nobody wants to sign him?
