    His or Hyundai's... it doesn't matter and we all knew he is going to drive for them. Important part was that it hasn't been said anywhere or at least I haven't seen that.

    considering that Hyundai is going to win 26' Manus title, they need strong team also..

    Neuville confirmed
    Fourmaux not officially confirmed, but should be 99% logical

    Third seat open:
    Tänak?
    Evans?
    Solberg?

    don't know other that could carry throughout the season

    Hyundai will probably remain unchanged, Toyota will remain almost the same, as Solberg is expected to fill out departing Kalle's seat. The question is, what will M-Sport do, or if they will even be in championship in 2026 (maybe they will take out and focus on new car for 2027)

    There are many, many questions around the future of M-Sport in WRC.. the new Regs, new Promoter, return on investment, Ford continuation, another OEM or even building their own car.

    I'm sure they'll be there next year in some way or other. But 2027 is another matter.

    If Hyundai wants to win they better hire ogier and rovanpera.

    Have you heard, that Rovanpera is quitting rallying and will go racing formula cars from 2026 onwards?

    I doubt Evans, Ogier, or Solberg would touch the Hyundai. It seems like it's a very specific car to drive and they'd risk spoiling their good reputations by getting poor results in it.

    Even Loeb had mediocre results in the Hyundai, and that man can drive everything
