Reigning Super Formula champion Sho Tsuboi hopes Toyota’s partnership with Haas Formula 1 team will lead to an opportunity to test grand prix machinery.
Tsuboi is a likely candidate for Haas’s TPC programme, following his successful maiden Super Formula title and previous generation F1 car experience.
His success with Toyota’s TOM’S team in Super Formula and SUPER GT has solidified his position as a top driver at Toyota.
Toyota’s collaboration with Haas has already seen Ryo Hirakawa become the team’s reserve driver and participate in FP sessions, with potential for more opportunities.
Tsuboi, who recently turned 30, is now considering the possibility of testing an F1 car, a lifelong dream now within reach after his dual championship wins in Japan.
His success in Super Formula has opened up new possibilities, with the opportunity to drive in F1 being a significant motivation for the future.
