“Imidlalo yama-Olimpiki iba ngumcimbi ongakatholi ukuqondwa ngumphakathi,” kusho isikhulu sezobudlelwano nomphakathi kwa-Toyota.
Imibiko eminingi ikhombisa ukuthi abakwa-Toyota baziqhelelanisa nale midlalo ngethemba lokuthi ngeke ilimaze isithunzi sabo njengomkhiqizo.
Ama-Olimpiki ase-Tokyo asehlelwe kabusha abengundabamloyeni emasontweni edlule, njengoba ingxenye enkulu yomphakathi e-Japan ithi le midlalo akufanele iqhubeke ngoba isibalo sabahaqwa igciwane elisha lokhuvuthe i-Delta variant siqhubeka nokukhuphuka ezweni lonke.

Ukuhoxa kwabakwa-Toyota kuyishwa elikhulu kuma-Olimpiki ase-Tokyo, kodwa njengoba lo mcimbi sekusele izinsuku ezine nje kuphela ukuthi uqale kubukeka sengathi kungenzeka ukuthi le midlalo ingaqhubeki njengoba bekuhleliwe. Le midlalo kulindeleke iqale mhla zingama-23 kuNtulikazi iqhubeke kuze kube umhla zi-8 kuNcwaba.
