Agree, 13 points after 7 rallies is hardly a crisis. However, safe wins or safe points aren't going to do it this year anyway. Ondra got it, the rules of the game changed and if Evans and Katsuta can't even deliver safe wins, how the fk can they deliver a driver championship?

Another poor points return by Katsuta in Latvia.
Part timers Rovanpera and Ogier are having to be brought in by Toyota more and more often. Katsuta simply isn't a reliable points scoring 3rd Driver, even after so many years in a full-time seat.Last edited by Fast Eddie WRC; 23rd July 2024 at 17:39.

Interesting what-if; Toyota would be level with Hyundai if Taka did not run in Latvia. There's a common comment "why don't team field extra drivers", yet when they do...

Full time Ogier would be such a mess. 5 drivers battling for the championship If kalle comes back.. Wow. But please Seb, let the 3 guys go for it this year.. They deserves it.

If Ogier takes the title this year, then 110% sure that he will do full season next year..
No way he let's that chance to fight for 10th go by

The issue as I said before is Katsuta's performances just not being good enough as a full-time driver.
Toyota have made a mistake in thinking he could be the No.2 driver to Evans. He's only averaging about 8 pts per rally this season so the ex-Champions have had to be brought back.
