From out of nowhere
The problem with this is that the Hyundai was looking slow at the beginning of the development (and got a bit better later though, but still wasn't really good), but the Yaris looks slow about one month before the start of the homologation process. If they can pull the car up in the remaining month performance- and reliability-wise, then OK, otherwise they seem to have come to a standstill. Don't get me wrong, I wish them all the best, but as many others are saying, the signs are not the best. So yes, more than likely it will be a learning year.
Hanninen seems the obvious choice of the freely available drivers with more experience. Let's see the others.
Weird no one noticed Makinen finding his old co driver a gig.....:devil::devil:
You seems have been affected by all thatīs been said on this forum. Or you experienced all that yourself? You seen tests on sight? You know which drivers to come? You assesed the new structure of the team? based on comon knowledge, what makes you think location harms the project? Where a flie in the office when discussions were made between Tommi and his emploies?
I wouldnīt think so.
So much more nice if we look forward to Toyotas commitment and hopes by being more positive. Wasnīt long ago everyones highest wish was more factoryteams in WRC. By bashing before they even competed looks foolish to me.
With the current useless team of amateurs on all levels Toyota should be happy if they flop Mini style, but i think we are dealing with a Suzuki kind of flop.
