I am actually very surprised that there was the result there was. This same scenario has hit the media a few times over the years and Toyota's response was always "we are looking at it" and then nothing.
All Toyota had to do was put some text disclaimers on the bottom of all the commercials showing on track "motorsports" behavior or drifting, stating "This type of driving will void your warranty", and they'd be in the clear. lol

Or wait, would that be counter productive to the excitement they've been trying to generate for the Toyota brand with the GR lineup? /s
