The article states that the TS030 was the first hybrid entered in the FIA WEC. This seems incorrect. Audi entered their hybrid version in the Spa 6 hour race, Toyota debuted the TS030 a race later, at Le Mans. Bastencate (talk) 22:36, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was wondering if we could use one of the official photos from Toyota's Flickr page; if not, maybe one from the website? https://secure.flickr.com/photos/toyotauk/sets/72157629026119479/with/7314285772/ FstrthnU (talk) 08:55, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

They are not under an appropriate Creative Commons license for Wikipedia use. A free image will be available eventually, we don't need a temporary fair use photo for now. The³5₉ (Talk) 14:40, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The team that runs this car in the Le Mans series, is listed in the infobox is the Toyota Company, however the official team website is named Toyota Hybrid Racing. Should this be recognised and a separate page started? --Drumncars1996 (talk) 18:54, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The team is entered in the WEC as Toyota Racing, run by

Toyota Motorsport GmbH. The³5₉ (Talk) 19:03, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply

• What makes these sites reliable sources?
  • nextgen-auto.com
    • I am uncertain as to this website's reliability so I have replaced the times it was cited with other reliable sources. MWright96 (talk) 19:37, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • crash.net
    • This website is a proper professional publishing outfit with editorial control. For a chunk of the mid 2000s they were the publisher of the annual Autocourse annuals.MWright96 (talk) 19:37, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    • Am not too sure about this one's suitability so I have removed it and replaced the times it was used with appropriate reliable sources. MWright96 (talk) 19:37, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Toyota last competed in sports car racing in 1999: needs to be something like "Prior to the development of the TS030 Hybrid, Toyota last competed..."
  • Added. MWright96 (talk) 19:37, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• the first car undertook a three-day, private test session at Circuit Paul Ricard, where it was planned to run for 40,000 kilometres (25,000 mi).: not quite right; the source doesn't say it was going to run 40,000 km at Circuit Paul Ricard (which would be hard to achieve in three days!).
  • Corrected. MWright96 (talk) 19:37, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• The crash at Paul Ricard is mentioned twice in consecutive sections; the second mention could be abbreviated.
