List of Future GPX Cyber Formula characters

The following is a list of characters from the anime Future GPX Cyber Formula series, including all the characters in the TV series, the OVAs, and the games.

Unlike other long-going series by Sunrise Productions, the Cyber Formula series seldom changes the major cast throughout the series. Most of the major characters were kept throughout the whole series while adding new characters throughout the production. The major difference to main casts to switching the main character role between Hayato Kazami and Bleed Kaga in Cyber Formula SIN.

The brackets after the teams and cars are their active seasons, including official settings other than game variations.

Hayato Kazami (風見 ハヤト, Kazami Hayato) is the main character in the anime series Future GPX Cyber Formula other than Cyber Formula SIN.

Hayato was introduced to the world of Cyber Formula when by accident he became the registered driver of the Cyber Formula car Asurada, designed by his father while he recovered it from the hands of mercenaries. The Cyber System registers a unique user for the vehicle at the time of activation and the it would take a week to reformat the vehicle for another driver. This was not an option as the race was to be held much sooner. This forces the Sugo Grand Prix team to go with Hayato as the driver for the license race over the team's driver at the time, Akira Hiyoshi. After earning his license to compete in the Cyber Grand Prix, Kazami becomes the youngest driver to ever compete in the Grand Prix, at the time.

His first season was successful, being the youngest driver to seize the World Championship title in his debut year by three wins and six podiums, including the stunning victory in Japan, overcoming the disadvantage of switching cars from Asurada GSX to Super Asurada 01 and stumbling at the beginning of the Grand Prix due to overconfidence and near-lack of racing skills. He and his team struggled in the following season's opener due to the high speed of development of other constructors. However, the development of Super Asurada AKF-11 and his driving skill would still prove strong against other opponents, especially Knight Schumacher (Osamu Sugo). He nearly abandoned the chance of becoming World Champion by requesting Osamu, who attempts to retire the race (due to an eye condition) to return to the track in final round. However, it turned out that all the leading drivers are throwing away their lead and race against them, Hayato barely beat Osamu, Shinjyo and Randoll in the final corner, winning the race and secured his second World Champion title.
