You can see that after Katsuta, they were not able to produce any driver able to fight for higher places in any championship. I am sure that Jasper will be over all other drivers in their programme, but not because of this programme, but because he started out of this programme... For sure for Jasper is better to drive anywhere than stay at home. But I still think that more suitable programme should be better for him and his progress.
Agree. But details remain to be official about his programme. Or are they publical?

You can do tests on a 5 K stage over and over again, just to learn driving smart and skillful. Or you let him drive rallies whatever they may be situated and whatever grade of competion. And learning will be even better. I recommend the latter. Maybe just what Toyota are doing...
