Toyo Tire announced that they would be participating in the “Nürburgring 24 Hours” and “Nürburgring Endurance Series” from the 26th March 2022 in Germany.
Toyo Tires to Take Parts in Nurburging 24 Hours
Consisting of two courses, the F1 Grand Prix Circuit, and the Nordschleife, the Nürburgring is notorious. With over 300m elevation changes and more than 70 corners in every 25km lap, the Eifel Circuit presents a unique challenge. Due to the mountain micro climate, drivers in the 24H race could also expect sudden weather changes to complicate their race strategy. Extracting the maximum performance for 24 hours in unpredictable conditions, challenges both car and driver, providing an opportunity for Toyo Tires to test its tyres in the extreme. In preparation for the Nürburgring 24 Hours, the team would also run in the Nürburgring Endurance Series.
In 2022, Toyo Tires have renewed their participation team and signed a partnership agreement with Ring Racing, the car tuner that has been building racing cars near the Nürburgring for over 10 years. Toyo Tires has developed tyres for the Toyota Supra GT4 car, which will be entered by Ring Racing. In its mid-term business plan, ‘Mid-Term ‘21 Plan’, Toyo Tires confirmed that it will introduce in Europe with pinnacle technology, sharpen performance at its R&D center to differentiate its products and enhance its branding. Motorsports improves tyre performance globally by incorporating objective and experiential data from extreme use into product development.
