According to Finnish journalist Jarno Saari, in 2021 Bottas will again be driving a WRC car, with either Hyundai Motorsport or Toyota Gazoo Racing. Bottas also confirmed he will be behind the wheel if the season begins as planned.
“If the rally will go ahead, then I will be at the start line, that is the current plan and hopefully it is arranged.” Bottas told Finnish publication Ilta-Sanomat.
