This is exactly the kind of BS post by some total idiot which was referred to in the earlier post.

Everybody wants Toyota to be a winning car. Nobody hopes the opposite. But someone can try to predict what will be the outcome judging from what he knows and that prediction can be negative.
It's totally normal unless you live in a fairy tale where everything is positive and nothing bad happens.
Let´s see how Monte goes...
Hope everyone remembers who Hyundais 1st Monte went...
And Hyundai is best team now, maybe. So I believe Toyota can do same.
If Toyota is Top 5 in first rallies I´m happy. But I believe they will get some podium places next year, 1st place finish, don´t think so.
No matter how hard the propaganda machine works that thing that makinen put together is nothing more than a finnish nationalistic flop tower.
Its going to be really fun when the same propaganda machine will try and defend the nothingness they produce event by event.
I wonder if latvala has brought with him any posters from his VW days to hang around.
pathetic and useless.
It's development year for all teams. That's why these forced restarts via change of rules are done from time to time. The aim is to bring all teams on the same start line (of course not totally possible). All of them have same conditions for future development - same number of jokers etc.
That's a fair point but probably the info you got is the same we got: they’ve started a WRC team from almost scratch; their facilities aren’t state of the art but they’re good enough for the job; despite the remote location they’ve managed to attract experienced staff; they’ve designed and hugely tested a whole new WRC car in a very limited time; the car is ready and will be homologated without delay; they’ve got a balanced driver line up for their first season…honestly, anyone looking at this facts in a sensible and fair way will be puzzled to find all the wrong doings appointed by the eager critics of this Makinen/Toyota venture. To me they've already proved they're a serious WRC contender and I'm quite happy to see Toyota back in WRC alongside TMR. Best luck to them!
