Toyota spent eye-watering amounts of money on Formula 1 in the 2000s, yet when it walked away at the end of 2009 it had three pole positions and no victories to show for a decade of huge effort and investment. In this video we look at the reasons Toyota's approach to F1 failed, what it could have done differently, and the missed opportunities that could have saved the team in its final season. What did you make of Toyota's eight years in F1? Let us know in the comments!

They pulled out when they had their chance much like Honda, in F1 experience is key to success

@DJUwU 4 года назад

I blame a combination of FIA's failure in making things exciting/banning too much technology....and Toyota caring about corporate profits more than racing results. F1 is a dying sport by profit margins and audience retainership. Also Toyota makes No 1 or No 2 in overall automobile corporation profits...I highly doubt they would want to keep throwing money into the money pit...only to be a mid tier F1 team. ie...just look at Toyota today...all their sports cars are developed by Subaru, BMW, and LeMan performance race team that have nothing to do with actual corporate Toyota. Just a shell of a name.

@hangingchad_ 4 года назад

At least Honda are back, and hopefully will be giving Red Bull a real chance to win the championship (that's optimistic, I know). It's nice to see that Honda is still going for it. At least they're back in the sport and building some fantastic engines. I doubt Toyota would pull off the same success, unfortunately.

@ArthurZakaryan23 4 года назад

@@DJUwU Factory racing whether it's F1 or another series is proving to be fruitless for many OEMs. One only has to look at the current landscape of the world's racing series to see that. Audi and Porsche pulled out of LeMans LMP1 program, same with Peugeot, leaving only Toyota for the last few years but no telling post COVID if they'll continue. LMP2 is full of privateer teams and large OEMs are mostly in GT3 but thought I read Porsche will be closing their GT racing operations this year as well. DTM is also a former shell of its once self with BMW pulling out, same with Audi, not sure if MB is still in it. WRC racing isn't quite F1 expensive but not much cheaper than operating an LMP1 program so that's also seen departures by large car makers the last several years. Now carmakers are hedging their bets on supporting full eRacing teams, some going the electric racing alternatives to F1.

Their final season was really weird. A few weeks after their Bahrain front-row lock-out, they were dead last in Monaco. At the end of the season they finally got their act together. Belgium was a missed opportunity, even though Trulli failed to even pass Badoer in the race... The Toyota engine was lacking some power in 2009, which was perhaps a contributing factor as to why they failed to win a race that season. They were fast, but just not fast enough in Singapore and Japan. The last missed opportunity was Brazil, where Trulli clumsily ran into Sutil on the opening lap. He was very mad with Sutil after the accident, which was kinda funny.

They clearly underestimated how long it takes to be successful in F1, Honda semmingly made the same mistake when they reentered the sport with McLaren (though that one was probably more McLaren's fault than Honda's). Toyota was about to make it in F1 and as others said they really could've dominated the hybrid era since they are one of the manufacturers with the most experience in that department.

As I understand it Ford was kind of the opposite. They were divested from the team and had no focus on putting any energy into making smart moves to keep the team viable. Their management never had any real communication with the team's major figures so they just shuffled things around and never settled on a good strategy.

@graemes8187 4 года назад

Seems like they were more interested in using F1 as development ground for their corporate culture. They exposed their corporate ideology to a challenge that would help them identify weaknesses and potential opportunities. They pulled out when they felt that they had passed the steep end of the learning curve and would be experiencing diminishing returns. They put these lessons into practice in a series that required less investment in cutting edge aerodynamic research with more emphasis on durability. I would say this was a monumental success according to their value system.

One thing that people overlook about this was Toyota's NASCAR success at the time. Toyota had started their NASCAR journey in 2001, one year after they started their FORMULA 1 journey. And it produced way better results. The big reason for this is how well Nascar's and Toyota's ideals line up with each other's. Formula 1 is a developmental series, Nascar is a spec series. This means that in Nascar are the cars are built to be very similar as possible. This is done so that less emphasis is put on the car and more on the driver. If one manufacturer gets too far ahead of the rest, Nascar will actively try to give the other manufacturers an advantage to catch up to them. So when you have a Manufacturer like Toyota who wants things done it's way, paired with a series like Nascar, your gonna get great results pretty quickly.

Trulli's masterful drive at Suzuka, beating Hamilton in a straight fight was one of the standout performances that year. You'd hoped such an impressive P2 at their home race could've swayed them to keep going. Nice to see the two almost certain victories for Trulli at Bahrain and Spa that were squandered due to strategy and technical issues being highlighted, usually when they are mentioned Trulli gets unfairly blamed for not bringing home the result when he in fact was blameless at both occasions. Also don't forget another potential victory was left at the table when the Michelin teams pulled out of the 2005 US GP where Trulli had qualified on pole, though I consider that one to be more of a long shot than the aforementioned 2009 races.

Also to be fair Kimi most likely would’ve won that race.

@jamsbong 4 года назад

I thought the pull out from Honda which subsequently produced the championship winning BrawnGP was also a huge failure from Honda. Very short sighted, just like Toyota.

Doubt it tbh, Mercedes’ hybrid design was particularly novel and I’d expect Toyota to stubbornly follow their own design even if it were unsuccessful. Their culture, like Ferrari, is just too slow and bureaucratic.

Back in 2017, one could almost say that Honda became a very expensive and big F1 failure; however as soon as the 2018, 2019, and 2020 seasons came around they have throughly redeemed themselves by working openly and closely with Toro Rosso and Red Bull.

The right mindset and business structure can redeem any company. The corporate greed and inability to mold to rapidly moving trends is honestly a huge shame in nearly every industry.

@LoneWolf2k4 4 года назад

The F1 mindset always intrigues me. Toyota wanted to win right out of the gate. However, you would expect a 5 to 10 year plan. Especially considering the rate at which F1 technology changes. They were haphazard in their approach, then finally started to find consistency. Unfortunately, by then it was too late. When you look at their Endurance program, it makes it tough to swallow. I know it's comparing apples to oranges. I think with a little more time Toyota could have been competing with Mercedes, Ferrari, and Red Bull. It's makes it more difficult to comprehend that a 4th in the constructors championship wasn't good enough (given where they were at during the time).

You can't run an F1 team by committee. You need strong leadership. You need a Colin Chapman, or an Enzo Ferrari, or a Toto Wolf, or even a Paul Stoddart or Eddie Jordan. Ferrari's current woes are partially down to lack of strong leadership.
