SARD’s traditional two-tone white and red colour scheme has been made into a tricolour design with the addition of the blue and pink colours of WAKO’S, although Kobelco and Denso remain as the team’s title partners.
WAKO’S will be a familiar brand to SUPER GT fans, as it acted as Team LeMans’ main sponsor from 2016 until its disappearance from the Toyota stable following the 2019 season, in which the team’s drivers Kenta Yamashita and Kazuya Oshima won the title.
New team Rookie Racing then ran the WAKO’S colours for one final season in 2020 before switching to the orange-and-gold colours of Eneos in 2021.
As well as a new livery, SARD has a revised driver line-up aboard its Bridgestone-shod #39 Toyota GR Supra this year, with defending champion Yuhi Sekiguchi moving across from TOM’S to partner Yuichi Nakayama.
