Toyota announces WRC plans

[er88]

The Toyota has looked a bit off the pace in testing, but for these tarmac test videos I'd rather wait and see how it looks when Hanninen is in the car. Tommi is driving it like the old man he is, so I'd like to see it when it's getting the arse driven off it by Juho. Toyota should also maybe give Bouffier a call, as he would be a good driver to test on tarmac and has good experience as a test driver. However this should've been done 6months ago, not weeks before homologation.....

I notice all the 2017 cars, now including the Toyota, seem to have a plain front with similar front aero (just a big splitter).



Whereas the Fiesta has more on either side of the grill, blending into the front wheelarches...



I wonder who has it right ?

They both look silly to me, but the Fiesta does look more intricate and refined in this respect. The front bumper splitter on the Yaris looks particularly homemade.

Because some of us have proper judgement skills, if you see a pile of shit by the road you do not have to taste it to know its shit.

The toyota looks slow in testing, the aero looks more like something out of one of those retarded max power magazines and the team is being assembled by nationality rather than skill. The team manager has photos of rival manufacturers in the official team garage, the lead engineer left mid project and the driver selection is worthless.

If you need to taste the pile of shit to find out its shit then go ahead.

after a ride by Tommi in a TOYOTA WRC.

Go play tennis.
It's safe.

Big sense of humour even if you´d not admit it.

True, but the Fiesta was the last to be created so you would expect its aero to be the least resolved.. but its front end actually looks the most.

They may not have tested the whole car, but it's entirely possible Ford gave them the bodywork some time ago to do their aero testing with in a tunnel. Of course we will never know for sure. But I agree, Ford does look the most complete for front end aero design, but I am no expert!!!

Can we just get serious for a second? Is it "Gaz-oo" or "G'Zoo"
