    Apparently Mr. Toyoda isn’t worried about having a huge advantage over the competition on the WEC; if Toyota misses WRC manus champ this year, why not try to get Ogier?

    Besides, even if Ogier seems the obvious (and smarter) choice for a vacant seat at Toyota, how can we tell Lappi won’t be replaced by another talented Finn, like Suninen, that seems ready for a full manu drive and is managed by Makinen’s long time pal Jouhki ?
