The series visits Fuji twice a year. I think changing one of the double headers to cut the hairpin would give some more variation in how the races go. Race distance is not much shorter but average speed will of course increase.

Confirmation that the safety car coming out much later than expected basically screwed Fraga and Nojiri's races.

I'd love to hear about what exactly happened with the safety car timings in this race... Another weekend, another potential fuckup under SC (though this time it might've robbed someone of a win!)

What about that safety car... Fraga was absolutely pissed

What can I say, Ohta is just too damn fast. He gets both wins along with the Princess Yoko cup.

Also, Fraga going from nowhere to 3rd in the standings is pretty impressive, but maybe it highlights how much nobody besides Ohta seems to want to win this championship...

A great race, despite way too much of it being behind the safety car... Either the Race directors lost communication with the SC, or their kettle took too long to boil

Hell of a drive from Igor Fraga to go from 9th to 1st, and he made up 5 of those places on the 1st corner! Crazy stuff. As an Inging fan I am gutted for Sena, he had an issue that took him out of the race while running in P3, though at least Oyu was able to (mostly) stay out of trouble and finish well

Shame for the championship battle though, with Ohta getting a penalty it would've been the perfect chance for Iwasa to strike back from pole... but he had a terrible start, then got taken out in the 1st corner.

Meanwhile Zak is just chillin

A couple things that the highlights video missed:

- On lap 3-4, there was a great battle between Rikuto Kobayashi and Nirei Fukuzumi; Kobayashi made an incredible move around the outside of T3 stick, but he was passed by Fukuzumi at T1 on the next lap.

- On lap 30, Tadasuke Makino had just made his stop, and was being chased by Toshiki Oyu on warm tires for provisional P3. Oyu made his move around the outside of the Dunlop hairpin, which caused Jake Sanson to yell so loud that he broke his microphone for a bit XD

Unfortunately the pace of the Honda(and more OTS) allowed Makino to retake position down the straight, and he proceeded to pull away from Oyu
