Toyota City, Japan, Sept 12, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - The TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally Team has completed a very challenging weekend at the Acropolis Rally Greece without the overall results it desired but with some important points secured to maintain its advantage in the drivers' and manufacturers' championships.
In its second running since returning to the FIA World Rally Championship calendar, the Acropolis lived up to its reputation with slippery and rocky roads and high temperatures providing a considerable challenge.
The championship leader experienced a trying weekend after sweeping the loose gravel roads on Friday before losing around 15 minutes on Saturday morning after damaging his car.
However, his Power Stage drive ensures he still leads the drivers' championship by 53 points with three rounds remaining.

Kalle took a great victory last year in difficult conditions and rain which is of course not typical in Greece.

Key Points:

Kalle took a great victory last year in difficult conditions and rain which is of course not typical in Greece.
Elfyn and Esapekka have also been very strong recently and hopefully they can continue in a similar way in Greece."
If it's going to be dry then I think it's going to be really tricky for us to open the road on Friday.
We had good speed and a good feeling on similarly rough gravel roads in Sardinia, and hopefully we can find that again in Greece."
