Farewell to Sakamata Chloe: ARO Announces Final Races for Chloe Cars and Ri Liu

Motegi, Tochigi, November 30 – In a heartfelt announcement that has resonated across the Hololive and motorsport communities, the Adak-RMS Organization (ARO) has confirmed the retirement of the iconic Sakamata Chloe cars from Formula Hololive and Hololive GT3 competitions.

This announcement comes following Sakamata Chloe’s decision to conclude her streaming activities as a Hololive talent on January 26, 2025. To honor her legacy, ARO has designated two landmark races as the farewell outings for both the Chloe cars and their long-time driver, Ri Liu, marking the end of an era for Chloe fans and racing enthusiasts.

This weekend’s Formula Hololive 2024 Finale GP @ Motegi will serve as Ri Liu’s final race in the Tsuyo Cup and the Chloe cars’ last appearance in Formula Hololive. Ri Liu, who has consistently showcased remarkable performances under the Chloe banner, will aim to cap off his Formula Hololive career with a strong showing at the iconic circuit.

The Hololive GT3 Japan Series will bid farewell to the Chloe cars during the 6th Fes 500 Split B race. Taking place on March 2, 2025, this event will be the Chloe cars' last competitive appearance, closing their chapter with the same grace and energy that has characterized their journey in Hololive GT3.

The Sakamata Chloe cars have been a staple of Hololive Racing since 2023, combining stunning livery design with strong performances on track. From dazzling fans to achieving podiums, the Chloe cars, helmed by Ri Liu, have represented their Oshi with honor and determination.

Ri Liu, who has driven the Chloe cars since their debut, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to represent Chloe in motorsport. With his signature tenacity and skill, Liu has brought the Chloe cars to life on the track, creating unforgettable moments for fans and competitors alike.

News of Chloe’s departure and the subsequent retirement of her cars has sparked an outpouring of tributes from fans, drivers, and teams. ARO has encouraged the community to rally behind the Chloe cars in their final races, ensuring that their legacy is celebrated to the fullest.

Following his final race in March, Ri Liu is expected to step away from competitive racing under the Hololive banner. However, his impact and achievements will remain etched in the history of Hololive Racing.

As the motorsport world prepares for these historic races, fans are invited to tune in and cheer for Ri Liu and the Chloe cars one last time. Whether it’s the high-stakes action at Motegi or the celebratory atmosphere of the 6th Fes 500, these events promise to deliver unforgettable moments worthy of Chloe’s enduring legacy.
