Toyota next year in the F1,expectations?
As alll you f1-fans know toyota will be joining the F1-ecuries(will there now be 24 drivers or does it remains 22),so what do you expect about this Japanees team?They did some tests on SPA-Francporchamps not so long ago,and they drove laps at the times of last season,so basically they're a year behind,so unless it changes,I don't think they will be a danger for ferrarri , williams and McLaren
Hakkinen is quitting for a year now(and speculations have it that he's going to yaguar after his sabat-season),and Raikonnen is replacing him,that's a good thing.
Also about the F1 of America next week,it will happen,and Ferrarri has left the choice for M.Schumacher to compete or not,Ralf on the other side HAS to compete then,so said the team management of Williams

I think Toyota will be worse than the Minardi's.In 23 and 24 positions.Because thay are using thier own chasis and engine.So they will be totaly new with even an unexperianced team manager.They might get better in afew years but now they don't have a chance

should be interesting how Toyota will do in F1, we'll see
im sure they will surprise a few people.. the japanese are always so perfect about how they design ... sure their tests may have been a lot slower.. but they are a country who hates to fail when it comes to having the best in technology..
just wait.. im sure they will do something..

Ok..you are right.. senna did have a honda engine in the maclaren..but guess what??..he tried the v6t for while.. and of course it sucked...
so he tried the v10.. and what happened?? it sucked too.. hehe.. so he tried the the v12... and man.. that sucked too.. sooooo he realized that he had to change engines.. and there he went for the ford and of course that sucked too...DAWM IT!!! hehehe..
so what happens in the end????
he got smart and changed to renault.. WOW.. and what is renault??
FRENCH.. and where is france??? in europe.. and what is europe best known for making???
THE BEST ENGINES IN THE WORLD.. heheh.. now this is the right answer... heheh
I was gonna say that the goodyear tires made him win.. but then again goodyear sucks.. hehehe

yeeeees but French engines are not considered the best in europe ,but don't forget we're all talking about a few years ago,and like we all now evolution changes every second,that maybe the nippon engines will have something to say.After all it's mitsubishi ,and subaru who have got the leadership in the WRC

I doubt there'll be 24 drivers on the grid.
Toyota has great technology and a great history. Toyota did good with CART and Le Mans but in F1 they're just gonna fall victims to Ferrari.
The Japanesse build great machines. They're engines take a lot of punishment. We all know Japs are good for WRC and some other various Touring car races but they cant be tops at every stream they enter.
Europe does build the best engines, thats a GIVEN. If theres an country that makes the best engines, its probably Germany. The name that i wanna see in F1 is Audi.
