Toyota seems to have its sights set on rejoining Formula 1 within the next few seasons, with first McLaren and now Haas rumored to be their partner. The Japanese company’s last attempt cost billions of dollars and resulted in only a couple of podiums. So why come back? 1- The Japanese automaker has been adamant about competing at Le Mans for the overall win with a hydrogen-powered car once the H2 class launches around 2027. This would likely result in efforts shifting from LMH to H2, marking the end of an era for the company’s dominant hybrid le man's prototypes.  2- For a company aggressively pushing ICE + electric hybrid road cars amidst the wave of battery-electric vehicles, it would seem strange to suddenly stop racing with their flagship hybrid technology while simultaneously not taking advantage of motorsports' most advanced hybrid regulations.  3- Enter the 2026 F1 engine regulations. As an adamant supporter of continuing the combustion engine’s charge into the future, Toyota gets to benefit from the development of renewable fuels in the most intense laboratory on earth, the Formula 1 grid. Additionally with a 50/50 split between gas and electric power, Toyota gets to show off their renowned, proprietary technology to the world against other greats in the auto industry. Toyota additionally would receive the marketing benefits of the fastest racing series on Earth.  #toyotaf1 #f1news #f12026 #haas #hungariangp #f1
