Japanese
No. 36 au TOM'S GR Supra
Sho Tsuboi
“Since we were staring from 6th position on the grid, we knew we had to work our way up through the pack. It was fortunate that we were able to move up through my first stint and second stint to take the lead. Then [Miyata] Ritomo further extended our lead, and this is something that we will be able to take advantage of in the races to come. Because Fuji has been a good track for the GR Supra, and I have also done well at Fuji. Since yesterday, we knew that we would have good speed in the race. We came to this race with the intention of making up for (the trouble that kept us from finishing) at Okayama, and since we were able to do that, I fell it was a great result.”
Ritomo Miyata
“The reason that we were able to build a big lead over the cars behind was because of the great effort of Tsuboi-san in the first half. Still, I am very happy with this result. The fact is that four years ago, when I was given the opportunity to drive as a substitute in car No. 36, we ran into trouble that brought us to a stop, and it happened again in the last race, so I have a finishing rate of zero (laughs). So, I am very happy about finally winning today in car No. 36 by a big margin.”
No. 56 REALIZE NISSAN MECHANIC CHALLENGE GT-R
Joao Paulo de Oliveira
“Over these two days, we dedicated ourselves to the goal of running a perfect race. But in this race, car No. 2 ran with a very good strategy that got them out in front of us in the lead. I thought it would be difficult to come from behind and win, but Natori-san did a great job of overtaking them, and the machine maintained a strong pace that enabled us to win. I want to thank everyone for this.”
Teppei Natori
“For this first win for me in SUPER GT, I am full of gratitude to our Manager, Mr. Kodo and the team and all the fans who cheered us on. At the end, it was a hard fight with car No. 2, but they were every bit as fast as us. To pass it, I was able to take advantage of the presence of GT500 cars to catch up, and it was just a very narrow margin of opportunity that made the overtake possible. I think it was a wonderfully exciting SUPER GT race.”
