When one has more money to bring in.. the other with less, departs.

M-sport is there to make money. Anyone who brings them more money than it costs them to run the car will get a drive, no matter how many cars they have to enter.

Sesks will jump at a program with Hyundai if he gets paid. Him as their gravel driver and another for tarmac could work.

Really? Are Hyundai out of money?

[deephouse]

Seems not as they apparently offered Tanak the highest ever salary in WRC for staying.

Sesks is faster on gravel than other MSport drivers with less seat time, he is on Pajari's speed. Tarmac he would learn. He can be hired without big costs and they would get good publicity. Just that not everyone can drive that car - remember Solberg. If year would be 2021, Griazin would be natural choice.

Sesks would be an interesting choice, certainly for the gravel events. If they are serious about wanting to win the championship in 2026, they would want a tarmac guy for those rounds as they won’t have time for Sesks to learn…maybe Rossel could be an option in that case.
The Solberg example is in my opinion not a good comparison. So much was against him that season, put him in that car now and I’m sure he’d be fine relative to his team mates.

If even two world champions can't firgure out that car, how could Solberg or Sesks could do it? Oh and one of them rather leaving WRC than drive another year with it. I think that rally1 i20 is hopeless case, even more with Hankook tires and without hybrid unit.

Did you consider Munster and his backers aren't covering 100% of the costs?

But how many cars do they have?

McErlean's car is being rebuilt for Saudi. Sooo.... they don't have any more than what they have.
