Why not Ogier-Breen-Østberg? Like I said earlier, it would be a good team with a championship contender, a young fast tarmac guy and a more experienced gravel guy.

i have nothing against that but in that case i think Breen and Ostberg would share the car IMO. Budar just said in an recent interview that everything in their team depends how much money they must pay for the top driver. And we have seen that so far these two seasons Citroen has mainly operated with two cars.

[WRC] News & Rumours 2018
Another thought: if Toyota and Hyundai keep their lead drivers and Ogier goes to Citroen, who is M-Sport’s lead driver? Evans? Meeke? Try to get Lappi or Sordo or Paddon?

If Ogier goes to Citroen, then M-sport's doors are open for Meeke or Paddon

MSPORT has gone into money making mode numerous times before and after winning both champs. last year it is possible. In some ways it might be a preferred option cause MSPORT wont leave WRC while Citroen without some wins and real chance for title next year might.

M-Sport's only option is Meeke (if Ogi goes out)

Yep, it'd be great but with Mr. Tavares ‘doing more with less’ motto it’s hard to believe they'll eventually get the budget to sign Ogier; Tanak is unavailable and in the remote case Neuville decides to leave Hyundai he can prefer going to Toyota. If Citroen is serious about getting a winning driver for the next season, they should be already talking with the best out of the top 3: Lappi.
