Why would Toyota leave if they win? The rules are good for at least 3 years. If they have the car to beat, you stay and win more. They win LM once and they only tie Mazda. They win it twice or more, no Asian brand can claim that . And there's no way they spend a quarter billion on their program lol. They were quoted as saying it's about a quarter of what they spent in F1. So something from $300 million to $75 million. It looks the direct opposite of Toyota leaving. They finally committed to 3 cars for Spa and Le Mans, to me it looks like they're starting to put MORE into the program not wrapping it up. And they just signed the WTCC champion, for what, a one-year deal? Same thing with Porsche. They have a car eligible for 3 seasons, what's the point in quitting? I bet the WEC is giving them nice incentives and reasons to stay in the future.
