Facing an intense season ahead in the world rally championship, Elfyn Evans is fully prepared for the fierce intra-team battles. Toyota Racing has assembled a formidable driver lineup designed to push boundaries on every stage.
The return of Kalle Rovanpera and Ott Tanak to competitive action means the defending champion will face even stiffer competition. However, equality in equipment remains a core pillar within the factory squad.
"On the other hand, we already had five cars this year, and I think all the team's drivers had roughly the same opportunities to fight for success. I don't think there were any significant differences between Seb, me, Sami or Oliver. Everyone had the same parts and equipment available to them," Evans explained regarding the team's philosophy.
Addressing the upcoming technical transition at Seri #01 Rallye Monte-Carlo, the Welsh driver noted that adaptation speed will be crucial. Extensive testing hours do not automatically guarantee immediate dominance.
"Time will tell. I really can't say. Oliver and Sami have both driven Rally2 cars relatively recently, however, and their pace is not too far removed from the performance of the new car. So they may have more recent experience of this type of machinery," he stated.
Having secured top-three finishes in Monte Carlo for three consecutive years, securing the ultimate victory remains the missing piece in his illustrious career. Read our in-depth analysis to stay updated on the latest WRC developments.
