Toyota have had plenty of success in recent races. Jarno Trulli scored a podium in France and was fourth on the grid while team-mate Timo Glock finished fourth in Canada.
And as the battle to keep ahead of their rivals for fourth place heats up, the Japanese-backed team are hoping to repeat their French success at the German Grand Prix.
Pascal Vasselon, senior general manager chassis, believes they are standing in good stead after testing at Hockenheim last week.
"We will have another new package of aerodynamic modifications which we finalised after last week's test at Hockenheim," he said.
"We had a successful test and with no mechanical problems we were able to do a lot of laps and make a good start to our preparations for this weekend's race.
"We evaluated the two tyre specs and different downforce levels, as well as looking at some aerodynamic and mechanical options."
Vasselon says the team hope to be close to the front-runners this weekend.
"We are expecting a level of performance more in keeping with our display at Magny-Cours than Silverstone qualifying," he said.
"That means we are hoping to be near the front again. Actually, Magny-Cours and Hockenheim are now very similar in terms of car configuration so we are expecting to go well."
