Apart the Yaris engine, this has little to do with WRC. Murata was LM/WEC engine chief and has now become TMG president, replacing Sato that will return to Japan. Anyway, after Porsche pull out it’ll be interesting to see what TMG will do next: stay in LM/WEC as sole manu or move into other racing series? Originally Posted by dimviii

Sad news, Jarmo and Toyota have a good relationship. Why so fast leave in middle of season?

Seems like it's not such a happy camp there in Finland, despite the success.
They've had a heap of staff leave in recent months. Including most top people.

They can officially say what they want but everything isn`t all smiles at Toyota (why else leave suddenly mid season..?), also Simon Carrier who was in charge of designing the car has left according to what I heard... Originally Posted by KKS
