Two further AMR powered crews competing in Asia this weekend
Wednesday, September 17, 2025
First and foremost, will of course be the Super GT Series as the D’Station Racing AMR Vantage GT3 of Tomonobu Fujii and Charlie Fagg look to rekindle that rich vein of success that sadly alluded them last time out at Suzuka.
Unable to secure any championship points after a late puncture thwarted their efforts in Suzuka, the #777 crew were fortunate that the GT300 class leading Mercedes AMG GT3 powered crew also only collated just three championship points to leave the gap between crews to just 7.5 points going into this sixth round of the season, but then on the flip side to that – the gap between themselves and the chasing pack also reduced to just eleven points.
Presumably down to their DNF last time out, the success ballast within the #777 car has now been reduced from the 100kg to 65kg and with no alteration to the engines power output – unlike some which have again been adjusted.
This weekends visit to Sportsland Sugo will be another 300km affair with another GT300 entry of twenty-eight cars plus those from the more powerful GT500 class.
Over in Malaysia, the Thailand Super Series will be having the second quick fire visit to the Sepang International for its penultimate round to their 2025 where that will then conclude at Chang International Circuit at the end of October.
Within this race weekend, we again expect to see the #7 Team NZ Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT4 of Grahame Dowsett and Romain Leroux. Sadly for this Pro-Am pairing, just four points and a DNF last time out has seen them slip down the GT4 Drivers Championship for them to need nothing short of a minor miracle for them to achieve anything meaningful again this season.
