“Before the start of the Qualifying, I was just so tense. In the previous round at Fuji, Kunimoto-san got the top time in Q1, but I wasn’t able to get the top time in Q2, and because of that I felt a heavy burden (of pressure). I wasn’t thinking about getting a time in the 1’59 range, so in my time attacks I just wanted to bring out the best performance I could from myself, the car and the tires. In the qualifying, I felt that I was able to perform with a good feeling thanks to the support of the team and the people at Yokohama Tire. In tomorrow’s race I want to do my best to be able to pay them back for everything.”

“I am very happy about being able to get my first pole position. I felt that the conditions were good for us from the Official Practice sessions, and because of that I felt very nervous going into the qualifying. Still, from the Official Practice, I got a good feeling about the condition of the track, so when I went into my time attacks (in Q2) the result was that we got pole position. I am very happy with this result.”
