Super GT 2017 - Autopolis


As the summer season draws near in Japan, the Autopolis leg of the 2017 Autobacs Super GT Championship heats the competition up to the hottest temperature. Having returned from the schedule since last year's cancellation due to the Kumamoto earthquakes, Autopolis never felt so alive and well for this season and this could be one of the most exciting yet.

Comeback aside, it's another clear win for Lexus's new LC500 racing car as the #36 au TOM's LC500, driven by Kazuki Nakajima and James Rossiter, wins the GT500 class while in the GT300 class, it's a 1-2 Toyobaru finish as the #25 VivaC 86 MC and the #61 Subaru BRZ R&D Sport placed 1st and 2nd respectively. Quite a surprise.

Highlights:



The next race is on Sugo on the 23rd.
