Additional test days.
So you can also use the "normal" 2021 test days for 2022 car (MSport this year and VW in 2016 for 2017 car), the ratio is totally up to you.
(you can also use the additional test days for 2021 car if you really wanted)

Exactly.
I can't believe that people are basically accusing Tanak of hiding behind "family reasons" for either just not being bothered to go to Monza, or needing a rest, or putting together a secret deal to drive a Ford/Toyota/Trabant/Wartburg/Lada in 2022...
Do people really think he would do that?

Personally I doubt there is something strange with this. Most likely just someone close with some illness or similar.
But I don't really know him on a personal level and doubt that many here do.
I doubt many of these people that don't know him expected him to switch to Hyundai in 2019 either. So that might be the reason why there is more room for speculation now.

If he could want to retire, he could say it out clearly: "I don't enjoy it anymore and I'm tired of this sh*t".
Meanwhile - not-motivating situation may make some decisions easier to make. I don't know the reasons at the moment, but if there could be title fight situation at the moment, could it be the same decision from him? We can only speculate.

Yes.
Also, he skipped the press conference of Acropolis because of personal reasons, and didn't restart in Catalunya although there was no reports of the car being too badly damaged. If these things hadn't happened, speculations would be quieter for sure. But these two could be also a part of the same thing which is forcing him to skip Monza, whatever it is.
And it's true what you said, it's none of our business in the end, we shouldn't speculate too much.

Re Tanak possibly doing more testing of the new car... isnt testing unlimited within a certain radius of the team base ?
Just speculation, but Hyundai do need to catch up with their 2022 car asap and getting Tanak more seat-time in it would be beneficial to them both.
