3/9~10に鈴鹿サーキットでスーパーフォーミュラの開幕戦が行われました。予選では阪口晴南選手が初ポールを獲得しましたが、レースはスタートでトップに立った野尻智紀選手の貫録勝ちでしたね。 2位の山下健太選手はピット戦略が決まって順位を上げ、3位は昨年スーパーGTで大けがを負った山本尚貴選手が抜群のスタートを決めて復活の表彰台を獲得しました。 オーバーテイクシステムの活用やタイヤ交換のタイミングの違いなどから各所で好バトルが見られたレースでした。同時開催された全日本ロードレースのJSB1000クラスはここ数年ヤマハワークスの独断場でしたが、今年から新たにDucatiのワークスマシンやダンロップタイヤのワークスチームが参戦してきたので観戦する楽しみが増えましたね!
The first round of Super Formula had been held from 9th March to 10th March at Suzuka circuit. In qualifying session, Sena Sakaguchi obtained pole position for his first time, but the race was concluded by Tomoki Nojiri's winning by running on top from the begging! Kenta Yamash*ta could be on the second podium with the effective pit strategy, and Naoki Yamamoto who got clash in the last season could be in third place due to his great starting. It was excellent races because of overtake system and the difference of tyres changing timing. JRR JSB1000, the motorcycle race, was also held in the same schedule.
