I'd be very surprised if any drivers are getting multi-year deals.

Based on what was said in the media then for example Rovanpera agreed a multi-year deal. It all depends on a driver and his potential.

It more depends on the Team and its future in WRC...

Which is also true but to say "I'd be very surprised if any drivers are getting multi-year deals." is not correct.

Rovanpera already has a multi-year deal, the surprise will be if anyone else ever gets one from now on.

It is correct, that if that happens I will be very surprised.

What might not be correct is my belief behind that, that it's more like a draft than a market.

Sesks has zero idea of his future, but Millener said he did a 'great job in the circumstances' in Chile...

Oh, come on, have you seen Dirt Fish CER friday start interviews?

Start from 4:57, just listen what Fourmauix is saying. For me it is a clear sign that he is leaving M-Sport.

He was clearly frustrated as the car wasnt like on the PET or Rally Legend. Not implementing some development parts isnt the issue on CER.
