The Toyota TF106 (Formula 1 car) is looking good, the car is setting good times at Jerez in testing and looking nice to boot.

Things are in fact going so well that Mike Gascoyne has hinted at the fact that the TF106B development is already in the line and may show up as soon as Monaco.

All the drivers and engineers are however all talking about still getting used to the Bridgestone tyres, so if there is a problem with the Toyota squad this year it may be the tyres.

I am sure however that Bridgestone will get there act together now they have more teams using them, however Michelin will go one of two ways this year, they could either roll over and not bother, or go out in a blaze of glory, proving the FIA wrong; I’m on a bit of a fence there, as I would love to see Toyota do well, but also would love to see Michelin shove it in the FIA’s face.

Oh well with the F1 season starting March the 10th in Bahrain we will soon find out (as a foot note, the MotoGP season starts a month later in Jerez)
