I doubt Andreas can bring enough money to pay for gas and food.

Are Evans and Suninen paying much or anything? I can’t imagine Malcolm would pay them, but would be disappointed if drivers of the calibre of Latvala, Mikelssen etc would have to bring much money.

I think Evans and Suninen are a part of the investment program where a share of their future salaries will go to M-Sport. It was said in an interview that they ”are supported financially”.

Not sure if it's good for the championship if Ogier goes to Toyota. Maybe if he drives atleast 2 more years. But he said the contract with Citroen would be his last one. I will lose some respect for the man if it was a lie.

Already starting to frame it as "having no choice" but to leave cause Ogier left them....

Also says that Lappi will very quickly be announced at MSport, that's somewhat surprising, both since he had terrible year being the last WRC and especially because of who his manager is.
