So, somebody decided to spice things up for Toyota? Just to remind them to forget the past?

If I were in charge of a team, M-Sport especially, the only way I'd agree to a waiver is by some large financial compensation or future development waiver as a quid pro quo. Otherwise forget it. WRC may benefit from VW involvement, VW would benefit from such involvement (particularly if one of the testing drivers gets to be in the private team). All the other teams are in a questionable benefit situation - particularly if Polo 2017 edition performs to the 2013-16 edition standard. So my crystal ball shows a cancelled party in Wolfsburg tonight!!

As Ogier and Latvala drove the VW, they will have a pretty good idea who it compares to their current cars. They might inform their bosses about it and that will certainly influence their position on this case. Originally Posted by Mintexmemory

Good for WRC, but I cannot imagine how this can be good for other manu teams. Especially when "private" VW's start to beat them on regular basis.
