What determines how long you can use a chassis?

The Feds. A preproduction car can only be here for a limited number of years before it has to be shipped back to its country of origin or crushed. Standard is three years, you can get waivers that allow for two additional years. This chassis has been here since 2014, so we are already into a waiver to get the 2017 season out of it. And with changes on the way for 2018 no reason to keep this car on the books.

Very interesting, thanks.

If I may ask, are you sticking with the Yaris platform thereafter?

Not sure. Might take a break.
