Tokyo, Japan — Toyota Gazoo Racing, one of the most dominant forces in endurance racing, is set to take center stage in an upcoming Netflix documentary, offering fans an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at their quest for Le Mans 24 Hours and FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) glory.
According to sources close to the production, the documentary will provide exclusive access to Toyota’s GR010 Hybrid Hypercar program, chronicling the team’s intense preparations, in-race drama, and the cutting-edge technology that powers their success. The series will also spotlight Toyota’s battles against fierce rivals like Ferrari, Porsche, and Peugeot in the Hypercar class.
“This is an exciting opportunity to show the world what endurance racing is all about,” said Kamui Kobayashi, Toyota Gazoo Racing’s driver and team principal. “Fans will get to see the passion, precision, and teamwork that go into competing at the highest level.”
The series is expected to delve into Toyota’s dominance in WEC, including their five consecutive Le Mans victories from 2018 to 2022, and the challenges they’ve faced in maintaining their position at the top. Viewers will also get insight into the engineering excellence behind the GR010 Hybrid, Toyota’s hybrid-powered Le Mans challenger.
Netflix has yet to confirm a release date, but insiders suggest the series will premiere in early 2025, aligning with Toyota’s push for another championship run. The project is expected to follow the success of other motorsport documentaries like Formula 1: Drive to Survive and MotoGP Unlimited, helping to bring endurance racing to a broader audience.
With increasing global interest in the Le Mans Hypercar era, this documentary could offer Toyota a new platform to showcase its motorsport legacy while inspiring a new generation of racing fans.
