Toyota refusing to give up WRC title fight in Chile

The Japanese marque has fallen 35 points adrift of rivals Hyundai with three rounds remaining

Toyota is refusing to give up the World Rally Championship fight in Chile this weekend despite previously admitting that its title hopes are “pretty much gone”. The Japanese manufacturer has won the previous three WRC constructors’ and drivers’ titles but its hopes of retaining the crowns have come under serious threat from Hyundai.

“The stages there are generally fast and flowing, which should suit our drivers and our car.
