The first round of the Toyota Gazoo Racing Festival Season 4, which was supposed to be held on January 28-30 but was postponed due to the movement control order (MCO), is finally going to happen. The new date is March 27-28 at the Sepang International Circuit.
UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) says that the event will conform to strict standard operating procedures (SOPs), operating under a sports bubble amidst the Covid-19 threat. As such, Round 1 of the Vios Challenge will be held as a closed- door event with racing fans invited to what is being billed as the biggest live-streamed racing carnival in Malaysia aired over two days.
