Latvala and Meeke would be a massive waste for M-Sport. They didn't perform for Toyota at all this season even when it was gravely needed (Spain). Suninen will definitely do a full season, I believe that was also confirmed by Millener. In my opinion it will all boil down to which driver is the most capable of tuning and improving the Fiesta WRC the most. If Suninen was missing Evans's technical input when he was out with a back injury for 3 stages, can you imagine that for a whole season? The car would fall so far behind Hyundai and Toyota and we will end up with another Citroen situation. In my opinion, the open spot it will be contested by Lappi and Mikkelsen (unless Hyundai creates the rumored satellite team with Breen, Veiby and Mikkelsen). I would assume Mikkelsen has more experience with the technical side of WRC, but I might be wrong. Lappi definitely has more potential. If Mikkelsen is out and Wilson doesn't see potential in Lappi to improve the car, it will get very difficult, despite the seemingly large number of options.

I've been hearing this story of Hyundai leaving for like the last 6 years and they're still there. A lot of people take their wishes for granted.
