NASCAR's Toyota teams are as far as you can expect from an *actual* Toyota factory team as TRD's racing division, basically Toyota US runs independently from anything Toyota Japan does.
I’ve been campaigning for a Toyota return to F1 ever since their successes in WRC & NASCAR as well as their recent dominance in WEC. I mean, they’ve been so successful with their motorsport ventures recently, why stop there? On a side note, Tommo, would love to see you have a crack at doing a Corvette Racing F1 team haha
Given their Le Mans dominance of late, I’d back Toyota to be able to make a good F1 car too. Might even be able to pull Alonso from Alpine as well! Also your design is just beautiful 🤌

Please keep making more of these sort of videos. I really like seeing what you come up with for liveries and overalls!
I am now working with Toyota. When they were mentioning about their Motorsport, I asked about Toyota in F1 and everyone just looked at me like as if I had offended their grannies.
Tommo This is definitely one of the best liveries you’ve designed, nice and simple, love it!
Those driver overalls and car livery are beautiful, black, white and red are my favorite color scheme. Great job Tommo!
I was literally typing what would a Tommo team look like as you talked about it! Can you do an old team like Prost or Jordan if they were to rejoin?
This is by far one of the best liveries youve made mate. Its really really clean and it looks to real to be fanmade wth ahaha
Tommo= “Kamui Kobayashi hasn’t raced since 2012” 2014 Caterham=Great race Ericsson and Anonymous Japanese Driver, Almost got points!
As much as I would love to see Kamui back on the F1 grid, I have another idea for an experienced Toyota driver: Alonso Well, not in 2022, but later. Not only did he win Le Mans Twice with Toyota, he also competed in Dakar. As for the test driver, wouldn't Ryo Hirakawa be a better choice considering he is a Toyota driver while Oyu is a Honda driver ?

I love the livery, it is the same colors as the ones from 2002-09 had which I like and I also like the design, it reminds me of the Marlboro McLaren cars which I quite like

another great video tommo !
*Is it me or waiting for new Tommo Video Feel Like Ages :'D* Anyway its glad to have you back and the video is great 👍
Love Kobayashi, the bloke was one of my all time faves. Despite all this I still think they are more likely to go engine supplier route
Toyota was so ignorant to leave F1 ,they were going to be winners in 2010 if they stayed, even drivers that drove for them said that
Yes, yes yes yes yes! I have been waiting for a new vid in this series!
Tommo I just thought of an idea maybe for you to use; putting current f1 liveries on older gen cars like 90s,00s,10s etc. would be interesting to see what it looks like
What if a NASCAR team like Hendrick Motorsports or Richard Petty Racing made the jump? Or an Indy team like Chip Genasi or Penske?
@hornetguy9063
2 жыл бұрын
I'm not going to bash, but RPM would be a joke in F1. The only reason that team can stay solvent is by being buoyed by a bigger team. Hendrick is a greater than 0% chance of happening. Penske has actually won in F1 (something Toyota cannot claim to), and he definitely has the resources to try. I'd love that as he's the most successful auto racing owner in American history, but I think he's committed to US motorsports (NASCAR/IndyCar). Especially given his ownership of Indianapolis. Ganassi is actually exiting NASCAR, Trackhouse Racing (part owned by Pitbull) actually gave him a Godfather offer for his team and he couldn't refuse. He seems pretty committed to putting the newfound funds into IMSA and IndyCar, but of all the guys you mentioned, that seems like the least far fetched one. I could especially see this if Chevrolet ever decided to enter F1, as Ganassi's close links to GM through his Cadillac DPI program could be perfect.

@Tommo love the livery mate, but I would've liked to see a bit of that streak affect on the red. Still looks bangin' though.
Cool livery! Although usually TGR livery are asymmetrical between left and right hand side of the car, but I think this one works quite well for F1 shaped car.
Toyota F1 before was so unique with their sound. So many fans wants to see F1 just because of that.
Tommo would love to see you make a video like this of koenigsegg. I mean their tech and aero knowledge is insane the question is if they have a budget and interest for it
Video idea if you haven't already done it: Ranking winter testing liveries
Tommo please find a way to make this happen, you have the power. My only personal change would be black Denso on the car and maybe black/carbon halo. Love the videos!
9:55 And his uncle raced at it in the past, extra bonus
9:13 Kamui actually raced for Caterham in 2014
Would be an Interesting Video talking about some brand in the VW Group Bugatti or something like that
Video Idea! What if you made f1 livery’s for they all the top 6 EPL team?
The background music bangs🔥
ahhh.. square space is back🥰
That livery is ASTONISHINGLY GOOD!
9:15 Kamui actually lasted raced in 2014. Came back after year out & raced for Caterham
Awesome video tommo! But Kamui Kobayashi last raced in 2014 for Caterham not 2012.
great video again! I would pull Sho Tsuboi as the reserve driver just because he fits the mold the same, young, fast driver but drives a Toyota now where as Toshiki is in a Honda
That AD transition was 🔥 I have a couple suggestions: - Jaguar (like Mercedes to leave formula E) -Lamborghini, Nissan and Bugatti cause they’re cool car manufacturers - maybe some old non-manufacturer’s teams similar to puma, so Marussia(in honour of Jules), Jordan or even brawn - youtuber teams, obviously starting with tommo f1 -future driver teams, hamilton f1 with the livery similar to his helmet would be very cool - and finally some brands, similar to red bull, in xbox/playstation, apple, and more I feel like im going on but these are some cool suggestions which would be very sick to see, shout out tommo for the amazing content

If the VW group was to come back to F1, Lamborghini wouldn’t have a look in, Audi and Porsche have already been interested in 2025 engine regs. Lambo can continue to make rebodied Aventador’s for another 10 years. Other ones were a shout though 👍🏻
Livery looks absolutely spectacular, the only changes I would make is a small black line in between the red and the white on the side of the car.
Thank you for the mystery KZreadr link!!
I feel like an interesting one would be Bentley. Could take inspiration from their other race cars and how decent they’ve been in the past. Another suggestion was Subaru but they might be a bit harder to do idk

I’m surprised that u didn’t go for Zhou alongside Kobayashi or even put him as the reserve/test driver. He’s a young and promising talent looking to get into F1 in the future
i would love to see the team as you have suggested. how about doing an episode or two on who all the F1 sponsors are and what they do. I see lots of names and brands on F1 cars but i have no idea what they are about. not very effective advertising i think but i dont mind as long as it keeps F1 going.
