Toyota has today confirmed that its 2009 challenger, the TF109, will be unveiled to the public on Thursday, 15 January 2009, however the Japanese manufacturer will not be holding an official launch ceremony like recent years. In a statement released today, the team said that images of the car would become available to the media over the Internet, as would other interviews and features.
Toyota's decision comes in light of recent cost-cutting discussions between teams and the FIA, with most teams this year expected to shy away from an official launch ceremony.
The first time the TF109 will be seen in public will be at the new Algarve Motor Park in Portugal, where the team will conduct a three-day test starting on 20 January.
