Drivers situation in Toyota is completely different cause they have two drivers that fight for win in every rally. 3rd guy doesn't really matter when they are leading the championship easily anyway (but it mattered in 2020).

But it's a bit unclear what sort of instructions Lappi has? Backup the other drivers and secure points or go for best result? He acts like the second one, but doesn't have the last tiny bit of speed/consistency and mistakes come. Starting to remind of Meeke in whole 2019 season.

What I can see happening next year if he keeps going like this is that Toyota nominates Katsuta on at least the rounds Ogier doesn't do or even on all (with Ogier in 4th car).
