Toyota scored back to back 2nd places in singapore and Japan. Just shows their car is very competitive. But many experts pointed out during the Monza event and other power circuits that Toyota's engine is definitely weak and probably the weakest as their both drivers qualified near the bottom.

Toyota should work on Engine and it's rumoured to be some 50BHP short than best engine. Last year Renault and Honda were given permission to modify their engine. Toyota should do the same and also get a top driver. They will surely be much better.
