Hayato entered the world of Cyber Formula when he accidentally became the registered driver of the Asurada, a car designed by his father, while rescuing it from mercenaries. The Cyber System locks a vehicle to a unique user upon activation, and reformatting it for a different driver would take a week. This was not feasible since the race was scheduled much sooner. Consequently, the Sugo Grand Prix team had to field Hayato as the driver for the license race instead of their current driver, Akira Hiyoshi. After obtaining his license to compete in the Cyber Grand Prix, Hayato became the youngest driver to ever participate in the Grand Prix at that time.
