There is only one Finnish guy who is 100% certain that Tänak goes to Toyota and that is our favorite Wuorela.
Then again, last year he was 100% sure Ott will retire#8 Ott Tänak - Martin Järveoja #8

I wonder if there is someone here who 100% knows what Tänak will do but just can't tell.

It's like Dirtfish now recycling some old interviews and making some assumptions based on those pieces. I like how Jouhki categorically denied any possilibility of a return to a Toyota
It would be very funny indeed if Tänak would be announced to Toyota's driver lineup in Japan. Though saying that retirement or sabbtical is not off the table considering his issues outside of the sport.

Huttunen's situation looking bleak. No money, no results.

F1-style qualifying rallies: 3 mini 'sessions'
As of 2023, international rallies will be able to rely on a new starting order determination process.
The scheme that can be adopted is based on a model very close to the one that has been used for many years in Formula 1.
The system may be based on three sessions on the same route in which competitors are eliminated depending on their performance.
Passes will be interspersed with trips to the assistance park where teams will be able to intervene and modify their vehicles.
In the model to be proposed at the next World Council of the International Federation, in the first session all those interested in the main championship will line up and the best 15 will be retained.
Among those excluded, the 16th position and following will be attributed to the holders of the best times.
In the second pass, 5 more competitors with the worst time will be excluded to determine who will be first on the road and so on.
In the last session, the matches of the remaining teams will be determined, with the fastest being the 15th to start for the event. This rule can be used in both dirt and asphalt rallies.

Yes, it seems. Have to remember, that it has always been easier for Jouhki than Grönholm to collect needed money. It was much cheaper for them to rent a car from M-Sport than to continue with Hyundai and it was also the only way to get Rally1 car, because Hyundai & Toyota were not available for private drivers during this year.
