After Nyck de Vries, it's time for... Kazuki Nakajima! As the young Dutchman left to join AlphaTauri in F1, Toyota Gazoo Racing had to find a new reserve driver. And finally, the Japanese team found him internally.

 

And for good reason, it is Kazuki Nakajima who will take on the role this year, in parallel to his activities as vice chairman of Toyota Gazoo Racing Europe.

 

Three-time winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, World Endurance Champion, two-time Super Formula Champion and credited with 36 Grands Prix with Williams F1, the 38-year-old Japanese has already taken the wheel of the 2023 evolution of the Toyota GR010 Hybrid.
