Toyota to return in 2016 ?

Looks like he was joking...?

 

+1

Just another little dig at the mess Honda have got themselves into.

Yeah has to be a joke!

But hey they have billions in the bank... and the yen is getting stronger vs the euro...

It would be fun to see them back.

 

Sure! The more the merrier!

I just don't think they have the cojones right now either.

Cheers,

Ha, the eternal rivality between Honda vs Toyota. I had to laugh at the cockiness.

It would have been barely believable if it had been 2017; for 2016? Let me laugh aloud.
For that, the engine would need to be ready by September so that it could be
integrated by the end of the year to a car and then tested early next year.

And even if all that was going to plan (!), the specs will probably be down again to
Mercedes who must be already started looking at the improvements on the engine for
next year. So just after starting and you're behind the curve and it's catch up mode.
Consecuently, Honda will be a year ahead of them.


I would think Audi has more chances to be enticed to join with Red Bull than Toyota.
Do you forsee a team RedBull Toyota? Not a chance.

 

I don't think so. They realized that F1 is just not their thing. I think they'll focus more on WEC..
