Round 4 Chang International Circuit : Race Press Conference

GT500 Class

No.6 WAKO'S 4CR LC500

 

Kazuya Oshima

The last time we won a race was back in 2013 and since then we went through some hard time, and even though we were having some good races recently we were still not able to get a win. So, I am just very happy that were able to get this first win in six years with this new team.

Watching Oshima-san race, I realized that it would be difficult for us to run at a winning pace. But since some fast pit work got us back in the lead, I was under pressure to defend that lead no matter what. So, I am really happy that we were able to win. I am just very grateful to the whole team.

No.10 GAINER TANAX triple a GT-R

 

Kazuki Hoshino

The GT-R does well on this track, and I have been able to win here twice. We had a chance to win in the last round at Suzuka, but in the end we weren't able to make it happen. So I was really determined to get the win here today. Because we chose a harder compound tire for the Qualifying, we could only get 7th position on the starting grid, but I ran with the belief that our pace would be the fastest in the race today. All I can say is that I am very happy that we won.

I am simply happy to have gotten this win. Since we had chosen the harder tires, we only finished 7th in the qualifying yesterday, but I was sure that if we worked hard, we had a chance to win today. The appearance of the Safety Car at that point in the race was a lucky break for us. On the final lap I was determined to try to pass the leader (car No. 56) and I was glad that I was able to make that pass in a clean battle (thanks to Hiramine-san's fair play). I thank him for that.
