The first box shows the basic salaries, the second box the bonuses from wins.
From Miika Wuorela's Penkalla magazine.
Remember that Tänak's contract is from 2017 when he wasn't yet a championship contender. His value has increased considerably after that.

I'm guessing the base salary is per year and 1,2 mil per win? Meaning he's racked up at least 7.5 mil already this season?

No, it says total bonuses before rally Finland.
EDIT: This would mean Tänak gets 400 000 from a win, Neuville 500 000 and Ogier a million.Last edited by AnttiL; 30th August 2019 at 13:04.

According to the AR podcast, M-Sport are after Tanak (with Ford's help) as they are looking forward to the 2022 hybrid and then electric cars.
They have a reputation for their new cars being fast 'out of the box' which may tempt Tanak, plus M-Sport think Tanak is a great one to help develop the car afterwards.#M-SPORTER

Have to remember when they were signed.
Lappi got signed mid 2018 after he was clearly faster than Latvala whole first half of the season. So salary compared with Latvala (who was re-signed about at that point) as well as others is somewhat ok.
Mikkelsen got signed in 2017 either after Spain or GB, meaning right after he finished 2nd in Germany in C3 and then led Spain in his first day in the i20 and finished 4th in GB minutes ahead of Sordo/Paddon in same car. So at that point his value was quite high, matching this salary.
The biggest take there is how little money Evans gets, but again he was probably re-signed at end of last year when only good result was one podium from Spain and people wondering if he will continue at all.

Yes after digging back it was before Spain.
So after Germany where he was 2nd ahead of Ogier and much faster than Meeke in same car.

Absolutely, I'm only calling him out on the demonstrably false statements and I'm allowed to disagree with anybody's opinions and I enjoy discussing it too. He is knowledgeable and passionate and...
