While meeting with press today about NORF 2010, Juha Kankkunen also comfirmed in his role as WRC advisor to FIA that Toyota is in talks about a comeback to the sport. But nothing more. He also named Proton, KIA and Nissan as makes that have shown interest towards WRC. But nothing more.
Link to a Finnish news story.
M.Chandler is only figure that turns how wind blows..
By the end of this month we should get concrete news.Quote:

silly rumours link Prodrive to everything as it obvious the creators of such dribble would like to see Prodrive back. wouldn't we all, as well as either MRE/Ralliart, TTE etc
Does TTE exist anymore ?
They still have employees in Cologne whether they are "TTE" or ex F1 i'm not sure.
I heard that Nicolas Todt was negotiating about buying complete Toyota F1 facilities in Cologne to help him enter F1 with his ART GP team.
Any news about mini? It's middle of the year and there's no sign of a car and testing..
