How were Toyota engines during their time in F1? What I remembered back then was that the team and car in general just underwhelmed with a few moments of brilliance.

That’s what I remember as well. It seemed the engine was a tad better then the chassis

Heir engine is thought to be fine even though interestingly their best races were on chassis tracks. Toyota also ran a few “wild” aero concepts at times so their car used to be very hit or miss on a weekend, they also did some stuff with their suspensions all the time so they were notorious for tyre issues in some way.

One thing about their engine was it was extremely reliable, I don’t think the Toyota team or any their customers had a single engine related DNF, which is an utterly ridiculous stat.

The fucking headers are massive.

Everything is massive in this beast

It’s a shame the recession hit and they decided to pull out at the end of 2009. The Toyota was actually a pretty decent car that season and managed 5 podium finishes.
They’d even completed the 2010 car but obviously we’ll never know how competitive it was.

How did that even fit in the car
