So, who cares? Toyota won a grand total of zero GPs in eight years as an F1 constructor anyway. (Jarno Trulli did grab one pole for the team, though.)
Although Tadashi Yamashina, Toyota’s Senior Managing Director, broke down in tears when Toyoda held a press conference last year to announce the F1 withdrawal, the executive seems to have adopted a new perspective on the race series. In an interview with Automotive News, Yamashima says F1 has grown far too “elitist” for Toyota’s tastes.
