I think this is going to just be a toe in the door for Toyota, at least for the moment. I wouldn't be surprised if they ramp it up over time, but they're not gonna dive in headfirst like they did last time. They're going to slip in, learn the culture while operating on the periphery, build some personal/professional connections to people inside F1 that might be useful if they DID jump in, and then decide from there how far to go. And they're going to do it in a way that allows them to easily cut their losses if it doesn't work out.

The irony that Steiner was let go because he kept saying the facilities needed an upgrade and Komatsu woo-ing Gene Haas over, only for half way through the season, Komatsu then to state that the facilities need upgrading...

@LazeeAnomaleeАй бұрын
I see what you're getting at but there were more issues at Haas than just the facilities which would explain why Gene was hessitent to pour money into the faclities without Steiner at least showing the team would make the most of them. Komatsu has done what Steiner couldn't which is maximise the team/car results as much as possible so when he now approaches Gene and says this is the ceiling of performance they can achieve without new facilities it carries more weight and less risk. Steiner's approach of introducing one or two big updates a year was clearly not working under the current rule set as by the time those updates came the team had fallen so far down the pecking order that it made scroing points almost impossible. Komatsu's approach of having a good starting base and introducing incremental updates almost every race weekend ensures they're never falling behind other teams in season development giving them more opportinities of good results. Steiner was a well loved character but an inefficient manager as shown by how well Komatsu is doing his first season the team is under his control.
@hagamapamaАй бұрын
Komatsu did it better. Instead of confronting Gene, he probably took the lead in proposing a solution, worked his best with what he had, and probably took point in these negotiations with Toyota Gazoo using his Japanese language skills to ease negotiations. In other words, instead of handing Gene a problem, he did the hard work and handed Gene a solution. One that rather than costing him money might actually lead to extra revenue for the team in the form of a new sponsor. That made it really easy for Gene to go along with what Komatsu wants. Management candidates, take note. Guenther is how you don't win. Komatsu is how you always win. Haas getting some relative success on the racetrack probably helped. Komatsu can tell Gene, "I can get you P6, but if you want better results I need more tools. And I have some good news on that front. I've been talking with representatives of the Toyoda family and..."

From an economic standpoint, Toyota's involvement in F1 could lead to increased investment in research and development, potentially creating new jobs and stimulating economic activity in related sectors like manufacturing, engineering, and marketing.

Honestly, i think they should enter as a engine supplier, less money than a works team. I also would like to see them to team up with mclaren considering how they've been performing this season, and it's a fantasy I've had for the past year.

If Toyota wanted back into F1, they should have joined Redbull Power Trains like Ford did.Then they could have gotten experience with the electric side of Hybrids while slowly designing their own F1 power unit to go into partnership with another team or buy Haas down the track badged as Lexus.

Describing the unfinished 2010 car as "stillborn" is an interesting word choice, to say the least.

I think the treatment of Andretti and GM has done more to make Toyota reluctant to dive right back into F1 then their previous performance. F1 doesn't want more suppliers and makes no secret of that fact.

Remember when Gene Haas said that they didn't need to upgrade their facilities and the problem was just solely not utilising what they have?.......

Toyota dont need F1 to sell cars. They're already selling everything they make
@DeathBlocksАй бұрын
And if the demand increases there is a reason to improve and upgrade facilities so you can make and sell even more.

Weirdly enough, They just signed an extension on services from Ferrari until 2028 48 hours ago.

In hindsight, it appears that Gene Haas wanted Gunther to maximize what they have to get the best performance theh can. Since he wasn't getting that, Haas was reluctant to pump money into a team that wouldn't lead to anything. This Toyota partnership isn't coming from nowhere. It could have been a target for a while and its coming into fruition now.

No Gunther..that's a key..now we can see that the unlock could've been him.

Could Haas just want to start using Toyota's wind tunnel?
@jinzo2678Ай бұрын
Well, it's not really a stretch that Toyota wants to team up with a team that had NASCAR ties since that's also a series they are in. This would look good on Haas since other teams have been pointing at them for supposedly copying Ferrari at times, and it would effectively change their status as a Ferrari copyer.

Ed, Mark, Gary, I have some fears about these new 2026 regs that I’d like to put to you. May just be me that sees it this way….. So, theoretically if you can drop top-body drag on the straights you can afford to pile top-body downforce on for the corners without the usual penalty on overall lap time. Best of both worlds if you will, but all based on top-body downforce. Monaco wings for the corners, Monza spec for the straights. My fear is that this would mean cars that can follow less well than they do now as the downforce split relies more on top-body downforce for ultimate lap time than they do currently. Plus, the leading car will drop the drag before the chasing car and will be accelerating away sooner. If the chasing car has already lost ground in the corner due to turbulent air it would seem that a serious power boost would be needed to catch up, a lot more than is currently planned. Red shells may be the only workable solution to this!

Toyota got me into F1 2002. As their only F1 fan I would love to see this happen! RIP Påven! Also sign Trulli and Kobayashi!

Ferrari’s wind tunnel strangely doesn’t correlate to Haas’ data?!? I’d get out of there too! Toyota as partners sounds ideal. I’d give Komatsu whatever he and his racing friends wanted and wish them and Gene all the success in the world.
