Toyota Racing is to enter both the No. 7 and No. 8 TS030 Hybrid cars in the seventh and penultimate round of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC), the Six Hours of Shanghai on November 9.

Because regular Kazuki Nakajima is already committed to another series that weekend, Alex Wurz will drive No. 7 with Nicolas Lapierre alone.

Anthony Davidson, Sébastien Buemi and Stéphane Sarrazin will team up behind the wheel of the No. 8.

Toyota has not revealed its intentions for the last round of the season, in Bahrain, but promised to do so in an upcoming statement.

Just this weekend, Nakajima, Lapierre and Wurz won the shortened Six Hours of Fuji, after only 16 laps, all behind the safety car.
