D'Station Racing out early in Super GT testing from Fuji

Thursday, February 06, 2025

The Japanese based D’Station Racing team have got their first track miles in today as they go about preparing themselves for a full-scale assault on the Super GT Series with their Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 Evo.

Scaling back significantly on racing commitment from previous seasons sees the team turn away from early competitive racing within the likes of the Asian Le Mans Series to hopefully put themselves in a better position for the second season of their return to their topflight domestic series which starts at Okayama in mid-April.

Making use of a multi-day preseason test at their local Fuji Speedway circuit has seen team manager Tomonobu Fujii alone get down to some early testing around what was a dry but cold circuit today.

So far not listing any specific driver pairing, the team will hopefully be in a position to confirm this ahead of the two official test days arranged by the series at both Okayama in mid-March and then Fuji Speedway again at the end of that month – two weeks before the start of the season.

After something of a disjointed start to last season in terms of driver availability and tyre partner familiarity, the #777 Fujii and Charlie Fagg driven Aston Martin eventually finished fourth within their GT300 class having scooped a class win at Suzuka as well as a third in class visit to the podium for the pairing at Sugo.

Photos supplied by the team form today have also confirmed that the team will remaining with Dunlop in their open tyre market series.
