From what I read, mostly they were trying to make the new power steering work, but according to the article it already failed during the first morning. What I noticed is that they were using an oil cooler for the power steering again, and the car had a bit different sound, so maybe new exhaust as well? Time will tell...

I find it slightly odd that a current Toyota Factory driver is giving another Manufacturer's car a first competitive outing....
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

That's new for me!
Toyota Vitz (Yaris) on Rally Hokkaydo on FIA APRC entry list.
The car looks like the S2000 but with turbo engine. Could be a new R5?

No wonder M-Sport is earning millions on Fiestas R5. For example, this weekend in Rally Hedemark, the last round of Norwegian championship, there are 8 R5 cars competing. All of them are Ford Fiestas:

I don't know. Nobody has ever heard about this car. Even the official Japanese Toyota drivers are using Fords

Speaking of Finland, Juha Salo has just won Finnish Rally Campionship. Could it be the biggest success of Peugeot 208 T16 this year?

Loubet showed more speed and had better results in a smaller program with the Puma. Munster had 2 full seasons and can't keep clearly ahead of McElrean,after being thoroughly beaten by Fourmaux....
