    @BritRallyMedia

    Just for the avoidance of doubt, the image doing the rounds on here and FB, of Meeke allegedly in a ditch on today’s test with Toyota, is fake news


    ---------

    at French forum they wrote that the windscreen at this photo vs the videos is changed.Of course windscreens dont change only after rolls.

    So who crashed the Yaris then, if Meeke doing that is fake news?

    There`s something funny about these videos and images. That prestine-looking Yaris doesn`t have an "All live" sticker and has Finnish plates in videos, whereas some videos show a test car with Estonian SP plates and an "all live" sticker. Official news also shows Meeke sitting in a car with all live stickers. https://toyotagazooracing.com/releas...c/1017-01.html


    E: Just checked again, can`t find the video or maybe i was seeing stuff ( license plates thing), but the all live sticker was clearly there in some cases, which could be just as simple as changing a windscreen for some other reason.

    That's my take as well. If if was fake they could have tweeted a denial hours ago.

    Remember how Mikkelsen rolled i20 last year on test before Portugal (when he didn't have any contract) and it was completely quiet from both him and Hyundai.

    The official press kit had pictures of Meeke driving the Yaris with the All Live sticker on windscreen. I presume those were taken yesterday or some days before, which is also when the crash happened with the All Live sticker. In the crash the windscreen got broken, and was changed into a windscreen without All Live sticker, and this is the car Meeke drove today.

    I think the team has asked for the rally enthusiasts watching the test not to say anything about the crash, but the tractor driver hasn't heard of this and uploaded the picture casually to facebook or something, where someone has found it and put it circulating.
