01:04say back in
01:05the days it was something what toyota wanted to create like a sport car it was the first sport car
01:10which they they did in the 1960s yeah and actually what do you expect from this mille miglia because
01:16i mean toyota will be following but with really race cars so you have to slow down yeah we have
01:23to
01:23slow down for sure a little bit but uh yeah there is the the race with the cars up to

01:29are in this gran turismo category uh but yeah it's uh it's a regularity race but i what i have
01:36heard
01:36that still you go quite fast yeah and it's my first time to experience this so i'm very much eager
01:42to see
01:43how it's going to be in a in a reality and actually toyota was at the real mille miglia with
01:49a crown
01:49and it was 70 years ago it was a nice race with a nice car at that time yeah it
02:00was a nice car but
02:01it wasn't it wasn't a sport car so like in the time in the ferraris and mercedes and all these
02:06kind of uh
02:07you know cars which were already preparing to be a sport car so third ground was the first you know
02:12first time here but it was more like a family car back in the day so then after that you
02:18know they
02:18created the gt2000 but then then it was a little bit later mille miglia is great fun for you i
02:24can
02:24suppose but i mean your job in the toyota casu racing it's going on your team principal and toyota had
02:30a
02:30great year this year yeah it's been it's been going really well we just uh last rally in japan we
02:36took
02:37one two three four positions uh yeah we're leading the drivers championship and manufacturing
02:41championship it's been a very strong season uh let's say hyundai hasn't been on the level we ever
02:47expected but yeah let's see maybe it's getting a bit tougher now in the next events but very very
02:53happy with the team and the drivers where we are at the moment yeah and the drivers i mean you
02:58are
02:59happy with them or sometimes you are still severe and judging what they're doing well uh i'm very happy i
03:06mean i have to say this year we have had a new driver oliver solberg in our team he's a
03:10young he's
03:11the fastest driver in the championship but there is still some mistakes happening and we had a some
03:17you know good discussion with him in uh in japan that you know just a little bit more patient a
03:22little
03:22bit more more marching for the driving he has the speed but just you don't need to win everything
03:30today or even this year so just a little bit more patient
03:34and i think he will still have a chance to fight in this championship good have fun at the mille
