Toyota plans to investigate why its WRC cars had so many problems with water splashes in Rally Sardinia last weekend.
Toyota will investigate why its World Rally Championship cars suffered in Sardinia’s water splashes - but team boss Jari-Matti Latvala doesn’t believe there is much the team can do.Three of the team's four drivers encountered issues with the GR Yaris while traversing water crossings during last weekend's rain-impacted round on the Italian island.
"I think the performance of the car was good but of course we had this problem with the water splashes. But I can't say that everything was because of the car," Latvala told Motorsport.com. "Clearly there are things that can be done to help. I think if this had been a dry rally, you wouldn't have seen half of the issues. But I think in some cases it wouldn't have taken a lot to divert around them," Evans told Motorsport.com.
