  • Congratulations to Toyota for taking first place
  • “It’s exciting for Toyota to claim the Formula DRIFT Manufacturer’s Championship Auto Cup for the seventh time in the past eight seasons,” said Paul Doleshal, Group Manager, Motorsports and Assets, Toyota Motor North America (TMNA). “Formula DRIFT is an exciting series that allows Toyota to showcase many different models, and we look forward to continued participation in Formula DRIFT in the years to come.”
  • It’s been a close battle all season, but Toyota and Ford started to run away from the competition, frequently swapping places throughout the season
  • Chevrolet and Nissan fought to secure third
  • Consistent performances from Aasbo and Tuerck helped Toyota win the majority of its points
  • The speed of the DeNofa, Gittin and Pawlak kept Ford in contention
  • Field’s incredible performance in the Corvette contributed greatly to Chevrolet’s standing, while Bakchis and Forsberg are undoubtedly responsible for Nissan’s postion
