Great to see Nakajima Racing back on pole, it's their first pole position since 2010.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Gosh damn those cars have grip, look how late he brakes.

Great to see Nakajima Racing back on pole, it's their first pole position since 2010.

And for Tadasuke Makino, he's the first driver to take pole position in his debut in the series since Roberto Moreno in Nov. 1984 at Suzuka - 35 years ago.

It's been 45 years since a driver won their first race in the series - Masahiro Hasemi, in September 1974 - the second season of the championship! Neither, of course, had happened in the "modern era" from 1996 to today.

Love the close racing. Especially now, after the SC.

 

[Sharky.]

What a weird race! Pretty happy with the result 👍

 

[05XR8]

Definitely entertaining. Toyota drew first blood.

I thought we had a British GP on our hands for a while there

I wish gran turismo tv was still a thing so we could watch these races through gt sport

Considering they’re on YouTube, you almost can as it is, since the PS4 has a built in web browser.

Actually, if PD links the videos in the information tab as some sort of cross-promotion, then you’d basically have exactly what you’re talking about.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Err? YouTube is on the PS4. There's no need for the browser.

These being added to GTS has me interested in watching the series. Shame about Super GT not similarly caring about streaming.

 

[jake2013guy]

A combination of these being added to GTS and being racing on YT had me interested and I watched it last Sunday when I woke up. Was a great race. Shame for Palou though.

Round 2 is here:

Really cool that this series is free to watch on you tube live and replay. The closer** racing is fun to watch.

Yamamoto takes pole by over six seconds in his Dandelion Honda in a red flagged qualifying.

Rain is predicted for the weekend so hopefully it will be an exciting race.

 

[jake2013guy]

Looks like it will be. Sugo looks a fun track and good for racing Super Formula. And a slightly odd grid.

Sugo is a Funny Track, half of it is like a Club Circuit and the other half is like a GP Circuit, very unique track.

Ticktum has apparently lost his Super Formula drive.

[Northstar]

Unsurprisingly O'Ward will replace Ticktum.

Round 5 at Motegi is now live:

 

[jake2013guy]

Another great race. Good race from Cassidy from both a race and championship perspective. Just want TOM's to get qualifying sorted to get Cassidy some wins.

Here's the penultimate round of the season at Okayama:

11th Yamashta
16th Kobayashi

Here is how the championship can be won:
