I wonder if Toyota/ Tommi managed to convince Ogier to maybe sign up for more than just one year?
Ofcourse that would go against everything Ogier has said, but maybe the lure of driving that Yaris has been an incentive to stick around a bit longer.

I dont think so. He is not so strong and stable anymore . Only reason why Toyota hired him is to get title(s) back to the team but as we know. Its hard when car is crap and as Ott sayd in RACC that rivals are making strong progress and his really need to push to keep ahead.
Toyota is somehow backed to the corner with that move. When they have no real lead driver then it would be hard to explain why to be in wrc.

The team dynamic between Ogier and Tommi+Mia will certainly be very interesting to follow next year.

That´s "old" yaris 2017 with Finnish reg-plate, all cars this year had Estonian plates.
edit.
Actually it´s chassis #6 (SP-1006 this year), last used in Rally Turkey by JML , but still original 2017."quattro best 4wd rallycar ever"

Maybe they postponed it after the
Märtin interview?
Today, TGR’s official twitter account liked and quickly unliked my silly season tweet from last week which predicted Ogier, Evans and Rovanperä to drive for Toyota

Latvala isn't deciding who drives for Toyota. M-Sport will be there next year don't worry.
