Allan McNish - damn quick but time and again he compromises himself when in traffic/turns the wick up. This year and last year in LM, countless times when up against the Porsche Spyders in ALMS.
FYI, Toyota did not put "one Japanese driver in each car for ‘marketing reasons’". Kaz was the only Japanese driver for Toyota.The world according to Taki Inoue: https://mobile.twitter.com/takiinoue/st ... 7249326080

Yes, I know, but they've have done that before, or even ran an all Japanese line up. Sarrazin replaced the other Japanese driver who felt he wasn't up to it. If they're good enough - fine. I do think Kazuki can be a fine driver, as he does have the pace, which is the first requirement when picking a driving line up. He has had a habit of incidents, maybe a season of Sportscar racing will make him more 'rounded'.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
