No.14 ENEOS X PRIME GR Supra
Nirei Fukuzumi
“The weather was bad for the Official Tests conducted here at Okayama, and I myself had not been able to drive here with the new tires, and it wasn’t until this morning’s Official Practice session that I was able to run with the new tires for the first time. And that was immediately followed by the Q2 session, so I was really nervous. Since our rival, Tsuboi (No. 1 au TOM’S GR Supra) was also running in it, I thought it would be a close contest between us. But in the end, I was relieved to get our first pole position in a while (the first driving for Toyota since Round 7 of the 2023 season), so I am really grateful to everyone on the team. Tomorrow (in the race) I want to see us finish on top again. ”

Tatsuya Kataoka
“The car was set up so well, and it felt like the car was responding exactly as I wanted it to all the time. I thought I got a good time, but when they told me over the radio that I had gotten the top time, I was really surprised. I’m glad that I was able get such a good time attack. I am also glad to get my second pole position, but since I didn’t think we would get pole position today, I realize what a great job the team did in setting up the car for today, and that is why I got such a surprisingly good time. So, I am glad to say that it was the overall package that the team prepared for today that got us this pole position.”
