🗣️'If I lose this year, I think people would start to question the level in Super Formula.' Tomoki Nojiri admits he feels responsibility to uphold Super Formula’s honour following his defeat to rookie team-mate Liam Lawson in the opening race at Fuji ⬇️
beaten in a straight fight by Lawson in Saturday’s curtain-raiserSpeaking in the aftermath of finishing second in the first race, Nojiri said that Lawson’s sensational pace was no surprise, likening him to another of his former team-mates Stoffel Vandoorne - with whom he shared a garage in 2016.
“Until now I thought it wasn’t likely that I would be behind [a team-mate] often, but I thought this year would be more difficult. Despite being passed for the lead by Toshiki Oyu, Nojiri was able to get back ahead during the pitstop phase, as an early safety car period prompted virtually the whole field to pit at the same time., although he did have to repel an assault from the TGM car of Oyu at the restart.
