    It caused a puncture, major time loss. Smaller errors are often shown on the daily recaps.

    very nice beginning to the season but next are the rallies where they struggled last year. Mäkinen mentioned to estonian TV that they are well prepared compared to last year, last year they hadnt done any high altitude tests and basically just went to Mexico without any testing whereas this year they have done those tests and now they have all the data from last year.

    They start with their testing tomorrow in spain with Tänak.

    The struggles were down to ventilation issues and stretched over to Portugal I believe (on a much lesser scale). I suppose they'll do well this time around judging by their speed, the new bumper, and the data from last year.

    NA-A will be sporting Red Bull and Qatar on the Toyota. He will most likely have the nicest liveried Yaris.

    Yep I am looking forward to seeing this car. Will be good to have Nasser back in the championship. Crazy to think his last WRC event was back in 2015. Signs look good, but just want to see this confirmed as it seems every year we have a Nasser return story.

    Toyota Yaris R5 coming in 2020, testing starting in early 2019. The project will be led from TGR's Estonian base and Hänninen is likely to be the main test driver.
