The ultimate test

The FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) tests drivers, cars and teams against the best in the world over eight punishing races, including the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans. For TOYOTA RACING, the WEC is the ultimate competitive arena – a place to hone both cars and people in a relentless pursuit of performance, supporting Toyota’s wider development through cutting-edge motorsport technology.
