Toyota Racing

A Toyota endurance driver since 2012, Sébastien Buemi is one of the defining figures of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). Season after season, he has established himself as a cornerstone of the Japanese manufacturer’s programme, bringing experience, consistency and team spirit to the highest level of the sport.

At the wheel of TOYOTA RACING’s #8 TR010 HYBRID, Buemi shares the car with Brendon Hartley and Ryo Hirakawa. Together, the trio won the 2022 Le Mans 24 Hours and three world titles, in 2022, 2023 and 2026.

The 2026 season stands among the finest of his career. In the TR010 HYBRID’s first year, the #8 crew took three victories and clinched the drivers’ title at the Monza finale, while TOYOTA RACING secured the manufacturers’ crown. Sébastien is now a World Endurance Champion five times over, following his titles in 2014, 2018/2019, 2022 and 2023, alongside four victories at the Le Mans 24 Hours.

With more than 100 WEC starts, he ranks among the most experienced and successful drivers of the modern era. His deep understanding of race strategy, his consistency in traffic and his ability to perform in all conditions make him an essential asset for Toyota.

Alongside his endurance commitments, Sébastien Buemi also competes in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship with Envision Racing.
