Separately the Promotional Class which fields local celebrities sees three new stars joining the action, while the faster Sporting Class includes amateur drivers; and the Super Sporting Class for elite and professional drivers.

UMW Toyota Deputy Chairman Akio Takeyama said “The Toyota Gazoo Racing Festival has primarily been about bringing motorsports to the masses – this focus has not changed - and to a great extent, we have successfully accomplished this by bringing the races to so many different locations since 2017.

He added, “The opportunity to live stream the carnival and an entire race weekend would mean reaching out to an even larger and wider audience, including racing fans outside of Malaysia. The challenge before us today is to bring the energy and atmosphere of the Toyota Gazoo Racing Festival online.”

Curated as a live-streamed event, fans and viewers will get an uninterrupted front row seat to all the action this weekend, which will feature three qualifying sessions, six exciting individual races, pit lane insights, interviews with racers, and celebrity-studded performances.
