Toyota were the first to unveil their 2007 car, albeit not the first to run on track, and the launch was low key with the usual Toyota corporate emphasis. But while the team tried to drive forward from their lack of success in 2006, the new car did not at first reflect the huge effort and resources Toyota have focused on the project.
Appearances, however, are deceptive and the car is actually significantly different from last years, with important lay out changes and new gearbox technology subtly hidden behind a familiar colour scheme and old wings.
