A late puncture blots the D'Station Racings recent run of fine form in Super GT
Sunday, August 24, 2025
Having taken a GT300 class win apiece after the two individual races ran last time out at Fuji Speedway, the Japanese squad were hopeful of continuing that pace this weekend as the headline domestic series visited Suzuka for round five of the season.
Qualifying the car in fifth for today’s 300km race, it was this time Fagg who started the race for the team with all running according to plan over the initial laps as all the GT300 and GT500 acclimatised themselves to the literal heat of race pace.
Through an early Safety Car period for an incident involving a GT500 car, Fagg quietly held station in fifth as the race approached their pit stop window just ahead of halfway in race distance, eventually handing over to Fujii after a slightly elongated success penalty related fuel stop.
Re-emerging in seventh, the Japanese driver had everything to race for but a rear puncture nine laps from the end saw them drop places and eventually laps to finish P24 at the end.
The series now moves onto Sugo for another 300km race in a month’s time.
