So, unlikely next year's WRC champion will be French?

Well, Budar speaking about signing Lappi saying things like, we were looking to sign two strong drivers, and together they will form a formidable pair (I may be paraphrasing) it looks probably just a two car line up, so Ogier will have to rely on Lappi as his wing man. Can't see that helping his cause.

Meeke has nothing to offer anymore apart from making the brits a bit more interested in toyota...
His results don't matter, he cannot be champion and he will not give good points in the manufacturer battle... if he wins by luck or gets a podium or two the value of it will be that the brits who are not very bright to be interested a bit more in toyota...
plus toyotas useless incompetent management can now say that they are no longer a full finnish village team of nobodies that are getting carried by an estonian... its a win win situation both for toyota and meeke but not for the sport.

What a load of rubbish. A driver, who is capable of winning, in the best car and who will probably fight at the top end on most of the rallys and you say it's not good for the sport. Yes, he will be good for exposure, but he is fast too.
You've spent a lot of time on here slating the Toyota team and now they clearly have the fastest car, by a long shot, you were pretty wrong about them, so lets see where your prediction of Meeke offering nothing driving-wise gets you.

A lot of veiled criticism of Citroen in Meeke's comments on the difference at 'family-team' Toyota. He was clearly pretty unhappy for a long time..
Toyota has a great line-up now with popular, fast, exciting driver's.
