they have so many ex Toyota employees i would be surprised there is not a lot of knowledge in there already about this car.so not valid to say they don´t understand the car.įor USGP it was better than what they did chose to do. So to buy a car in itself is not the ultimate way ,right but if you do so it is better to buy a works car than something one has tried to make money. I highly doubt you´d not learn a lot more say as HRT from a car like a Toyota then from a Dallara.they no nothing of it ,save that it is crap and would not do anything the same now they got hold of it. Too much too account for just being the engine. Only in 2007 (with Vettel) were they good enough to compete against RBR, otherwise they are waaaay behind. The TF109 was the last F1 car to run on Esso fuel along with the Williams FW31 until the McLaren MP4-30 in the 2015 FIA Formula One World Championship, as well as last non-British based F1 car to run on Esso until Toro Rosso STR12 in the 2017 season.PNSD wrote:Its all well and good using anohter teams car, but when you dont understand the concepts of which it is based upon you will not reach its potential.įor a new team, it is better to start from scratch, learn and understand together and develop from that. The car from then on was uncompetitive despite a few glimmers of hope in Singapore when Timo Glock finished 2nd and Japan when Jarno Trulli also finished second. In the span of only two races however, the TF109 went from locking out the front row in Bahrain to locking out the back row in Monaco. It started the season well with three podium finishes in the first four races as it got the jump on rival teams with the "double-decker" diffuser. As far as performance went, the car was extraordinarily inconsistent. This was the last Formula One car to be developed by Toyota, as after the 2009 Formula One season was completed Toyota Motor Corporation announced their decision to withdraw from Formula One. It was revealed online on Toyota's website on 15 January 2009 and made its track debut on 18 January at the Autódromo Algarve. The chassis was designed by Pascal Vasselon, Mark Tatham and Mark Gillan with the engine being designed by Luca Marmorini and Noritoshi Arai overseeing the entire project. The Toyota TF109 was a Formula One racing car engineered by Toyota for the 2009 Formula One season.
