In 2022, he won the first round Suzuka, the second round Fuji 24 hours, and the fourth round of Autopolis, and it will be the final game with 134 points and the top of the ranking, but the seventh round Suzuka is Saitama Toyopet Green Brave It was announced by the team that it will be the last race at Crown RS. Since new models have already appeared in commercial vehicles, there will be some unavoidable parts as a dealer team.

I'm also worried about the participation system after next season, but for Saitama Toyopet Green Brave, we will first face the beauty of the end of the final game. Along with the drivers of Naoki Hattori, Hiroki Yoshida and Kota Kawai, and the store staff who join the team, Crown RS will challenge the last race.

Toyota withdraws liquid hydrogen Corolla after testing fire

au.motorsport.com

... just days away from the car's planned race debut at Suzuka, Toyota revealed the car had been damaged by a fire in the engine bay during a subsequent private test and could not be repaired in time for the season opener.
As such, the #32 machine will be replaced by a GR Yaris running on conventional gasoline.

Toyota's statement explained that the fire occurred due to a leaking pipe, stressing that the switch from gaseous hydrogen to liquid hydrogen did not directly cause the incident.

It stated that a pipe connection had worked loose due to a vibration, and that the leaking hydrogen was ignited by the heat of the engine. The leak was detected by failsafe sensor, causing the supply of hydrogen to be cut and preventing the fire from spreading beyond the engine bay.

The pipe design will be reviewed with the presumed aim of taking part in the second round of the season, the Fuji 24 Hours, in late May.

Qualifying results. I’m happy.
