Key Points: 
  • TOKYO, June 17, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - The TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally Team heads to Safari Rally Kenya on June 23-26 with the goal of defending its crown on the iconic African event.
  • The Safari made a long-awaited comeback to the FIA World Rally Championship calendar in 2021 when Sebastien Ogier led a one-two finish for TOYOTA GAZOO Racing.
  • Having previously featured incredibly long stages on roads that were still open to the public, today's Safari Rally runs to a format similar to other modern WRC rounds.
  • Safari requires something slightly different in terms of setup but hopefully that positive feeling will still carry forward."
