Polite way of saying that Toyota fired him
Just like Makinen was shown door and was supposed to continue in some other job in Toyota.. but basically disappeared since then
I think that TGR didn't like this year's..:
-Finlands PS finish mega happy interview (just after Evans&Rovanpera DNF)
- moaning about that manu's title is totally gone (although they managed to get the gap basically half from being 35p? down)
- praising Cyril about“He has shown the way”
“Cyril has been a leader who takes the responsibilities. Of course it is important that the team has a leader they can trust and they know which way to go.”

Yeah, feels like a scheduled termination. Someone else will take over for 2025 with JML in an "advisory role", before leave the team manager position in 2026. They probably didn't want to drop another team manager abruptly after firing Rob Leupen of the WEC team, just before the final race this past weekend.
