French F4 normally consists of 3 races per 1 event. The starting grid for Race 1 is determined by qualifying, the starting grid for Race 2 is determined by reversing the top 10 qualifiers, and the starting grid for Race 3 is determined by the second-best qualifying time.

Qualifying is always an important part of the race, but Taito Kato didn't fare as well as hoped in Germany. "I had a throttle problem, which considerably reduced my chances of putting in a good lap. I had less time than my rivals to get my tyres up to temperature and make the effort to be fast. I was just able to put in a decent lap at the end of the session and finish with P6. But there's no doubt that with one or two more laps, I could have done better, as the tyres were starting to get better grip. It's a shame, because the weather conditions were good at the time," regretted Taito.

On Saturday, however, the Nürburgring was hit by rain. Taito started in 6th place and moved up to 2nd place on the opening lap. However in the difficult condition, he dropped to 9th place temporarily. "I got off to an excellent start, but the conditions were very slippery and I had to go wide to avoid some drivers, which caused me to lose a lot of places right from the start of the race." Finishing P8, the Suzuka Honda Racing School-backed driver was unable to claim a podium finish in Race 2. Taito started in 5th place as Race 2’s grid is set by reversing the top 10 from qualifying. The Race was started with the Safety Car leading the pack. After the rolling start, an accident happened at Turn 1 in front of Taito. Taito avoided this accident, and he moved up to 3rd. However, a driver Subsequently hit Taito from behind and damaged his suspension. “My car was no longer as effective, and I had to fight hard to keep 4th place."

On Sunday, the FFSA mechanics fitted the 25 cars with slicks for Race3. This time, without any problems, Taito Kato was able to demonstrate his talent and competitiveness. Taito started in 10th place. After his good start and finishing the opening lap in 7th, the Safety Car was brought on because of an accident. When the race resumed, he started to close the gap to the cars ahead. "When I only started 10th because of my technical problem in Qualifying, I was expecting a difficult race. In the end, I got off to the perfect start again and managed to quickly get back in touch with the leading group."

The Japanese driver set the fastest lap of the race and made a number of perfectly negotiated overtakes to move up to 4th, just behind the 3rd-placed driver. Taito was quicker than him, but Taito was unable to catch up with him and finished in 4th.
