M-Sport weren’t exactly thinking mid or long term when they signed Ogier and we all know how that story went.
Ogier is completely different case. He is at the peak of his career, the best out there and if you are not too much unlucky he will give you the driver championship title. There is not long term or low term discussion.
I have not seen the full line up of drivers for the 2026 NZ Toyota single seater series. Starts next weekend.
