Conway to Return to No. 7 Toyota at Fuji

Mike Conway is set to return to the lineup of the No. 7 Toyota GR010 Hybrid for the 6 Hours of Fuji after missing the previous FIA World Endurance Championship round due to an injury.

As shown by the 36-car entry list for the Japanese round, Conway will rejoin full season co-drivers Nyck de Vries and Kamui Kobayashi aboard the No. 7 machine for the six-hour race at Toyota’s home venue of Fuji Speedway.

The British racer was replaced for Lone Star Le Mans at Circuit of The Americas by Jose Maria Lopez after suffering a collarbone injury due to a training accident.

With Conway back in action at Fuji, Lopez will rejoin the No. 87 Akkodis ASP Team Lexus RC F GT3 after Jack Hawksworth took his place in Austin.

The rest of the entry list for the event features few changes, with Anthony McIntosh returning to the No. 10 Racing Spirit of Leman Aston Martin Vantage  GT3 Evo in place of Derek DeBoer.

Sportscar365 understands that McIntosh will complete the season in the LMGT3 entry.

Porsche Penske Motorsport, meanwhile, returns to two-driver lineups for both its factory Hypercar entries after Mathieu Jaminet and Matt Campbell joined the team at COTA.

The penultimate round of the WEC season, which also marks the 100th race in series’ history, is scheduled for Sept. 26-28.
