Default Toyota, they need a fresh start.. - 06-29-2006 , 09:02 AM






Dump Trulli, and Ralf. Why keep these 2 on? Both have had a terrible year
so far and don't look like they are improving. My pick for them 1st would be
SS, then if JPM can't get a good ride at a top 3-4 team he could go there.

The problem Toyota is experiencing is not simply to the drivers. Why do
people think that drivers are the only significant part in the equation
when it comes to building a winning F1 Team? Just watch Alonso plummet
next year. He's kicking ass and taking names this year because he knows
his career will end at McRon.

The problem Toyota has is that they subscribed to the false notion that
Engerland is the center of the F1 universe. How sweet that the
Frenchies now own F1. Toyota thought they could buy their way into F1,
spend lots of dough, copy McRon or Wheelchair Willy and wait for the
crown. Imagine, a Japanese corporation using American business
practices to try to beat the British at their own game. Fuck me gently.
The whole team sucks, not just the drivers.

The lights have been switched on at TMC. They'll start doing things on
their terms now. TMC is the biggest building the best for a very good
reason. Once the Japanese teams have caught on to the notion that F1 is
very much a team sport and every member of that team matters (the same
way Toyota is run) the center of the F1 universe will be Toyota City.

Trulli qualify good, race slow. Ralf qualify slow, race slow. Both driver
race long time, need to quit. Fi dolla. fi dolla. (like my japanese?)

Toyota should keep either Trulli or Ralf, not both tho. Give the other
seat to some one who will push the car past it's limits - Liuzzi. Of course
if Juan Pablo is availing then take him over Liuzzi.

The Toyota F1 Fan Club recently had their annual General Assembly. It is
reputed that the number of delegates reached double figures...just.

Oh, sure...given another decade or two. And given that they are not caught
red-handed with another adventure like their rallying turbocharger units.

As French as Flavio, I think.

Start with the assumption that the OP is a fuckwit and go-on from there.
