But VW made a car for the regulations they were going to enter with and took a year off with a future world champion to develop their car.
Toyota had to make a 2017 spec car after developing the 2016 spec car for years with Hanninen as their test driver and without having had a S2000 car as a base (if the Skoda counts for VW).
Still, VW was impressive and dominant from the start, that much is true.

Like any other Toyota, it`s just a facelift, apart from that it has been around for a while...

Someone said somewhere, that Toyota will use one joker in 2019, according to Fowler, they will use all three with first one introduced for Mexico.

it was me, it was an interview with Ott around Rally Wales time or smth like that. im too lazy to search it.
but you know well that estonian reporters quite often get lost in translation. so it can easily be a mistake.Last edited by EstWRC; 22nd November 2018 at 20:33.
