I would imagine Toyota's sponsors are only paying for three top level drivers and either the team doesn't want to give them the extra exposure for free or they don't want to pay more or they don't want to be associated with a slower driver. But technically it's no difference, the car comes from the same workshop and is serviced by the same mechanics.
