Sorry, it's a 'Story' and not a 'Post' so not sure I can link to it.
But Meeke's in the full Toyota gear and they are giving journalists hot laps around Estoril. Alonso out-brakes Meeke but goes off into the gravel. Funny clip.
The main thing for me is that the marketing for the road car is tied around the WRC. But, they have a new driver line-up for 2020. All a bit awkward. The WRC drivers were supposed to have had a hand in the development of the car. I believe there are marketing videos in the can with Tanak driving it.
But now it's been switched to Lopez, Alonso and Meeke. Which suggests to me that Meeke may still be involved with Toyota in some way (road car and R5?) for 2020.

Meeke and Dakar is the worst possible combination. For Dakar you need a driver that drives safely at high speed over long distances. Meeke generally either drives extremely fast and not very safe or slow. Something like rallycross would seem to fit his nature much more.

Yesterday Chris Ingram posted he was doing a 'shakedown' of the Polo R5 so it seems he's continuing in that car for the Jim Clark. I don't know if its because the 2nd Yaris hasn't arrived yet at...
British & Irish Championships...
