Jarno Trulli and Kamui Kobayashi will return to the cockpit of a Panasonic Toyota Racing car later this month at the Toyota Motor Sport Festival.

Jarno Trulli and and Kamui Kobayashi

Both drivers will join Kazuki Nakajima at the annual Toyota Motor Sport Festival at Fuji Speedway, running demonstration runs of Toyota Formula 1 cars on November 21-22.

Jarno, the longest-serving and most successful driver in Panasonic Toyota Racing history, completed his last Grand Prix for the team in Abu Dhabi at the beginning of the month, ending with a points finish.

But, after the announcement that Toyota will cease its Formula 1 programme with immediate effect, Jarno has decided to get behind the wheel of a TF109 for one last show for the Japanese fans.

Kamui was the star of the show in Abu Dhabi, scoring his first Formula 1 points in a brilliantly exciting drive to sixth place, when he overtook two World Champions on the way.

Both drivers will give the Japanese fans a fitting finale for Toyota’s Formula 1 programme, while other aspects of Toyota’s motorsport heritage will be on show as well.

Kamui’s colleague in the Toyota Young Drivers’ Programme, Kazuki, will get behind the wheel of a Toyota Formula 1 car for the first time, after the end of his three years with Williams.
