Toyota Gazoo Racing has dropped the Gazoo. With the announcement of its rebranding, the Japanese manufacturer introduced the TR010 Hybrid, its new, improved version of the GR010 Hybrid which won the 2021 and 2022 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Toyota has been competing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship under the Toyota Gazoo Racing banner since 2016. From now on, the team name is simply Toyota Racing. The team is fielding two Toyota TR010 Hybrids in the Hypercar class. The car is an upgrade of the GR010 Hybrid intoduced in 2021 and reworked in 2022.

At the time of writing, Toyota Racing has not issued any technical details for the car, but we have spotted a number of changes (see video below). The front of the car has been redesigned, as has the rear wing.&nbsp;

This is Toyota&rsquo;s answer to the Ferrari 499P which has triumphed at the last three 24 Hours of Le Mans. 
At the wheel, the team has opted for constancy, aligning the same driver crews. Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Nyck de Vries stay together in the #7 for the third season running, while S&eacute;bastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryo Hirakawa begin their fifth year at the wheel of the #8.

Details are sure to follow soon. In the meantime, take a look at the TR010 Hybrid in the video and photo gallery.

The six names had already been announced, and now we know who is teamed with whom and in which car. The French manufacturer was keen to compose two balanced, equally competitive crews. Strategy-wise, Peugeot is aiming for continuity, complementarity and results.

The #94 will be in the hands of Nick Cassidy,&nbsp;Paul Di Resta&nbsp;and Stoffel Vandoorne. And the #93 entrusted to Lo&iuml;c Duval, Malthe Jakobsen and Th&eacute;o Pourchaire.&nbsp;Jean-Eric Vergne&nbsp;and&nbsp;Alex Quinn&nbsp;are the test drivers. 
Both crews have a combination of experience and a healthy track record. Their job now is to bring impetus to the Peugeot campaign. Team Peugeot TotalEnergies finished in seventh place last season, just ahead of Aston Martin.

Olivier Jansonnie, technical director of Team Peugeot TotalEnergies:&nbsp;Lo&iuml;c and Paul are strong pillars of the team and will play a key role in anchoring each crew. Both line-ups offer an excellent balance, combining drivers who are particularly strong at race starts with others who excel in qualifying. This structure has been designed with a long-term perspective in mind, while providing the competitiveness and adaptability required to perform across all race conditions, which is essential given the level of competition in the FIA WEC.

2025 Retrospective | Check out these stunning shots from the 93rd 24 Hours of Le Mans! From the city centre parade to the Hyperpole to the chequered flag, relive the highlights from this exceptional running of the race attended by a record 332,000 spectators.

<h2>Tour of the City Centre: a&nbsp;warm-up ahead of the 24 Hours</h2>

For the third consecutive year following Scrutineering, 19 cars across every marque in this year&#39;s 24 Hours took over&nbsp;the Le Mans city centre, namely&nbsp;Alpine, Aston Martin, BMW, Cadillac, Corvette, Ferrari, Ford, Lexus, McLaren, Mercedes, Peugeot, Porsche and&nbsp;Toyota. Thousands of fans came out to witness the breathtaking cars snake&nbsp;through the streets&nbsp;past shops, banks,&nbsp;restaurants and&nbsp;under balconies&nbsp;to the foot of the town&#39;s famous cathedral.

In the&nbsp;photo below is Iron Lynx&#39;s #63&nbsp;Mercedes-AMG LMGT3 with the&nbsp;Saint-Julien Catheral in the background. The German&nbsp;constructor made its return to the 24 Hours in&nbsp;the&nbsp;LMGT3 category after a&nbsp;26-year absence.

<h2>62 cars on the starting grid</h2>

Tradition dictates that on the Tuesday before&nbsp;the big race, all the&nbsp;cars&nbsp;pose for a class&nbsp;photo on the pit straight. At the&nbsp;93rd running, the field included: 21 Hypercars, 17 LMP2s and 24&nbsp;LMGT3s. Thanks to the presence of Alpine, Aston Martin, BMW, Cadillac, Corvette, Ferrari, Ford, Lexus, McLaren, Mercedes, Peugeot, Porsche and&nbsp;Toyota, Le&nbsp;Mans and the FIA World Endurance&nbsp;Championship (FIA WEC) are both&nbsp;experiencing a golden age.

<h2>class&nbsp;photo&nbsp;</h2>

The drivers also got their class photo, behind the official trophy and&nbsp;joined by Automobile Club de l&#39;Ouest President&nbsp;Pierre Fillon and FIA WEC CEO&nbsp;Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Lequien. A total 186 drivers had the honour of taking on the legendary&nbsp;24 Hours&nbsp;this year, including&nbsp;36 rookies. Thirty-four nationalities were represented and five female drivers took the start in the race: Jamie Chadwick, C&eacute;lia Martin, Rahel Frey, Sarah Bovy and&nbsp;Lilou Wadoux.

<h2>Euphoria&nbsp;for&nbsp;Alex Lynn and&nbsp;Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA</h2>

Alex Lynn in&nbsp;Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA&#39;s #12 Cadillac V-Series.R gave the American carmaker its first&nbsp;Hyperpole ever&nbsp;with a time of&nbsp;3:23.166. With the&nbsp;3:23.33 clocked by Earl Bamber, Cadillac monopolised the first row on the starting grid this year.&nbsp;

<h2>A first for&nbsp;Roger Federer</h2>

The Automobile Club de l&rsquo;Ouest named&nbsp;Roger Federer as the official starter this year. Considered one of the greatest tennis superstars of all time, he earned&nbsp;20&nbsp;Grand Chelem&reg; titles and&nbsp;topped&nbsp;the world tennis classification for 310 weeks&nbsp;with a playing&nbsp;style that has fascinated entire generations of fans.&nbsp;But beyond&nbsp;his performances, he embodies elegance, integrity&nbsp;and high standards, all values reflected and upheld at&nbsp;Le Mans.

Roger Federer: It was a real honour to give the start at the 93rd running.&nbsp;There was a tense&nbsp;energy in the air at that&nbsp;precise moment. I was struck by the sheer scale of what Le Mans represents.

<h2>Fast Pace from the OUtset</h2>

The moment Federer gave the start, Hertz Team JOTA&#39;s two&nbsp;Cadillac V-Series.Rs set the pace against their rivals. However, in quick fashion after taking off third,&nbsp;Julien Andlauer in the #5&nbsp;Porsche 963 overtook the two American cars and went on to&nbsp;carve out a gap of more than 10 seconds thanks to super&nbsp;fast&nbsp;laps.

<h2>Ferrari and&nbsp;Porsche neck and neck</h2>

Just prior to 20:00, AF Corse&#39;s #83&nbsp;Ferrari 499P snatched the lead ahead of&nbsp;Porsche Penske Motorport&#39;s #6&nbsp;Porsche 963 and Ferrari-AF Corse&#39;s #51&nbsp;Ferrari. The&nbsp;duel Ferrari-Porsche became&nbsp;one of the main storylines of the 2025 24 Hours, and this photo&nbsp;of the leading trio, wheel-to-wheel between the Mulsanne and Indianapolis Corners, perfectly captures&nbsp;the intensity of the race.

<h2>Greatest show on earth</h2>

At midnight, all eyes turned from the track to the skies. The 24 Hours of Le Mans Show, with this year&#39;s theme 24H&nbsp;On Board, delivered a jawdropping 20-minute visual feast including magical fireworks, a mesmerising drone show&nbsp;and stunning laser displays. Meanwhile, the drivers (undistracted by this spectacle) pushed their limits around the circuit and continued their quest for victory.

<h2>Ferrari triumphs once again</h2>

After&nbsp;24 hours of racing and&nbsp;387 laps, AF Corse&#39;s #83 Ferrari 499P shared by&nbsp;Robert Kubica, Yifei Ye and&nbsp;Phil Hanson won the&nbsp;93rd running of Le&nbsp;Mans. The last win by a private team supported by a top marque dated back to 2005 with&nbsp;Champion Racing&#39;s Audi R8. Kubica became the first Polish driver to triumph at the race and Ye the first Chinese. Ferrari had secured a third victory in a row and its&nbsp;12th at Le&nbsp;Mans.

And let us not forget the wins for Inter Europol Competition in LMP2 and for Team Manthey 1ST Phorm&#39;s #92&nbsp;Porsche 911 GT3 R LMGT3 in LMGT3!

<h2>A record 332,000 fans at the circuit!</h2>

This year&#39;s running&nbsp;was flooded with&nbsp;a whopping&nbsp;332,000 spectators, establishing a new attendance record.&nbsp;Thank you to each and every one of you for your unwavering support&nbsp;and enthusiasm, and for making&nbsp;the heart of Le Mans beat stronger every year. See you in 2026 for more thrilling and unforgettable moments at&nbsp;the 24 Hours of Le Mans!

Top 10 photos from the 93rd 24 Hours of Le Mans

In the wake of a tenacious 2025 season, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing has turned its focus to next year. With an improved GR010 Hybrid and the same driver line-ups, the Japanese team is looking to reconquer the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the world title.

A top&nbsp;contender&nbsp;in the FIA Word Endurance Championship since its inception, TOYOTA GAZOO&nbsp;Racing endured an unnerving&nbsp;2025 season marked by a frustrating yet revealing 24 Hours of Le Mans. Despite&nbsp;retaining&nbsp;its position in the championship classification, the Japanese marque&nbsp;is currently preparing a new version of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/the-toyota-gr010-hybrid-under-the-microscope-a-hypercar-born-to-win-le-mans-59762" target="_blank">GR010 Hybrid</a>&nbsp;for next year. The goal is to reclaim the top step on the race&#39;s podium and reassert the team&#39;s&nbsp;domination.

<h2>Bad Luck at the&nbsp;24 Hours of Le&nbsp;Mans</h2>

Competing in Hypercar&nbsp;since&nbsp;2021, TOYOTA GAZOO&nbsp;Racing is the veteran team of&nbsp;the category. Winner of the 2024 FIA Endurance Hypercar Constructors trophy&nbsp;&mdash; its seventh title in 10 years&nbsp;&mdash; the outfit&nbsp;approached this past season with one&nbsp;clear objective: to retake the helm at&nbsp;Le&nbsp;Mans. Team principal and #7&nbsp;GR010 Hybrid driver Kamui Kobayashi: We will have to challenge ourselves to get better in every area to stay on top.

In honour of&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/toyota-celebrates-40-years-at-the-24-hours-with-standout-liveries-59575" target="_blank">40th anniversary of Toyota&#39;s first&nbsp;participation in the 24 Hours</a>, the two GR010 Hybrids took the start clearly looking to clinch a sixth win. With performance and reliability on point, the race was theirs to lose. At that stage of the season, Toyota was second in the championship&nbsp;standings, arriving at Le Mans as a credible contender against Ferrari.

The&nbsp;#7 shared by&nbsp;Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and&nbsp;Nyck de Vries struggled from the very first lap, but still managed to climb to sixth position after qualifying 16th. After briefly holding the lead, the&nbsp;#8 of&nbsp;S&eacute;bastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and&nbsp;Ryo Hirakawa fought to stay&nbsp;in&nbsp;the top 4 before&nbsp;mechanical troubles&nbsp;cost the car more than 20 minutes, finishing the race in&nbsp;16th place. Kobayashi: We knew it would be a tough race, and it was indeed very tough. We tried to take every opportunity to get the win, but we couldn&rsquo;t make it happen this time. Now we have lost to Ferrari three times in a row which is not acceptable to me. We will come back to Le Mans stronger next year and with a different mindset.

<h2>Toyota GR010 Hybrid Improvements</h2>

Thanks to a decisive one-two at the Bapco Energies 8 Hours of&nbsp;Bahrain, final round of the 2025&nbsp;FIA WEC, Toyota secured second place in the FIA Endurance Hypercar Contructors Championship. The result capped off a difficult season while demonstrating the resilient and competitive nature of the entire team.

Now on to 2026 and&nbsp;Toyota&#39;s newly improved&nbsp;GR010 Hybrid. The driver line-ups will remain unchanged. A third season at the wheel of the&nbsp;#7 await Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and&nbsp;Nyck de Vries, and teammates&nbsp;S&eacute;bastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and&nbsp;Ryo Hirakawa are heading into their fifth in the #8. Four-time Le Mans winner&nbsp;S&eacute;bastien Buemi: Considering the season we had up to now, finishing second in the World Championship is a nice boost for everyone&rsquo;s morale going into next season, when we hope to come back stronger and fight for the title.

In response to Ferrari&#39;s domination of three consecutive runnings of the 24 Hours, Toyota is back with a vengeance, including&nbsp;a better car, seasoned driver line-ups and renewed determination.

In 2026, TOYOTA GAZOO&nbsp;Racing doesn&#39;t just want to battle, it wants to lead the charge&nbsp;once again.
