Definitely better looking than current Yaris especially from frontal hemisphere. Not so much due to the livery, but the agressive looking "mouth" with radiator.

These are removable blocks to keep engine heat up on road sections. And Co-drivers must not forget to remove them before entering a stage.

I think the reason the Yaris looked different in the presentation is because it had grey spoke wheels and not white ones. Not the most important thing but imho it makes the car look way meaner and detract from the fact that in it’s basis it’s still ugly.

If in Doubt, flat out!

The main difference is the wide angle lens of the phone, which distorts the proportions.

Appart from him being from Finland and previously driving with them....

The main sporting reason would be that he is better match for switching with Ogier.
Lappi is likely better than Mikkelsen on the fast gravel/snow rallies that Ogier definitely won't do and comparable on slow gravel. He is worse than Mikkelsen on tricky tarmac like Monte or say Northern Irland (if it were to happen) or wet/tricky gravel but Ogier wants to do most of these kinds of rallies himself.
