The more I hear bashing like this - the more I want Toyota to succeed.
Seriously, why are you so negative about it? Yes, I know Yaris is built in a farm of Makinen… but from another point of view it looks quite good:
It has backing from Toyota
It has sponsor
It looks nice (!)
It looks quite good on recent tests (remember Hyundai in 2014)
It’s drivers lineup looks like this:
One IRC and S-WRC champion who never had proper chance to shine in WRC (and did a lot of testing in Yaris)
One fast guy who has 16 WRC wins under his belt (okay, he might not be next WRC champion, but he definitely can show Yaris potential)
One young gun
For me, all of it looks quite nice! I wish all the best for them!

Same crew was stopped by the police for something. Bad weekend huh. But how did they not have a device yelling and flashing at them?
