Japanese car company Toyota is returning to Formula 1 after a 15-year absence in a partnership with the US-based Haas team.
Toyota, which withdrew its own team from F1 at the end of 2009, has become Haas’ "technical partner".
Toyota would provide "design, technical and manufacturing services", it said, while Haas will give "technical expertise and commercial benefits". Haas will continue to use Ferrari power-units, having earlier this year extended their contract with the Italian team until 2028. Toyota has in recent years found itself missing out on aspiring Japanese racing drivers and engineers to rival Honda, a source with knowledge of the deal has told BBC Sport.Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu said: "To have a world leader in the automotive sector support and work alongside our organisation, while seeking to develop and accelerate their own technical and engineering expertise – it’s simply a partnership with obvious benefits on both sides.
