Tommi Makinen is located in the Service Park of the Monte Carlo Rally the honor. The Toyota team boss wants to not only keep in touch with the scene and brought up to date state of affairs, he goes along with his sporting director Jarmo Lehtinen also targeted at recruitment. Especially with M-Sport observes the doings of the two fins with a certain suspicion. As with the introduction of Volkswagen and Hyundai, the team of Malcolm Wilson many good employees lost to the competition.
Meanwhile, the new Toyota team has grown to 40 people, and the work on the new World Rally Car are in full swing. "The CAD development of the car is finished, just we build the chassis for the first prototype. As of January we want to start with the tests "confirmed Lehtinen. So Toyota would be the first manufacturer, receives the test mode with a WRC, which was created completely by 2017er Regulations.
Where exactly held the rollout and the first test runs, currently is not yet clear. In March Father Frost should keep the team base in the Finnish Jyväskylä still firmly in his hand, an evasion in southern climes is therefore inevitable.
Even the driver who will drive the Yaris WRC, is still unknown. "It ghosts yes a few names in the scene around and it's no secret that Mikko Hirvonen and Juho Hänninen us as a test driver available," says Lehtinen.
Bouffier may be the next testdriver, especially testing for asphalt!

Maybe Hanninen as a test driver
