No.8 ARTA NSX-GT
Tomoki Nojiri
In the morning free practice, [Takuya] Izawa-san had recorded the fastest time and shown that the condition of the car was really good. In the afternoon’s Q1 session he had also run a fast time (2nd) to get us into Q2. What’s more, he also gave us some good information for adjusting the car’s settings further to add the final touch (laughs). Of course, I am thankful to the team also for preparing the car so well.

I think the biggest reason we got this pole position is the way the team tuned the car so perfectly. The car was really great. All I had to do was bring out that great potential of the car. And, despite the difficult developments in Q1, [Takamitsu] Matsui-san helped a lot by getting us through Q1. Anyway, it is a pole position that the whole team won together. So, I am grateful to Matsui-san and the entire team.
