D'Station Racing need to buck the trend of their recent results as Super GT heads for Autopolis for round 7 of 9

Now four points behind but with the rest of the GT300 class now surging up behind them, the 2026 Super GT Series is really hotting up now for the D’Station Racing team as the Japanese top-flight GT series heads for Autopolis for its seventh round of the season.

Despite their class win at the start of the season, the #777 Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 powered car of Tomonobu Fujii and Charlie Fagg has faced some racing challenges since then with some effective balance of performance and success penalties being applied that have since seen the crew struggle to not only compete but also to finish the races within a points scoring position within their GT300 class.

A P5 qualifying position last time out at Sugo only equated to a P21 in class finishing position for the team, making for their second non-championship points scoring round of the season with just this three-hour race from Autopolis plus a double header round from Motegi still to come as the series also makes up for his aborted destination of Malaysia earlier in the year.

The #777 crew now sit four points behind the #59 crew but with now a further six crews now placed in a position where any number of them could catch and surpass the AMR team should racing events on Sunday go against the D’Station Racing team.

 

This weekend again sees a further twenty-eight GT300 class cars being listed on top of the more powerful GT500 entries but again sees the Aston Martin saddled with the second heaviest success ballast weight penalty at 96kg together with the presumable fuel flow restrictor too.

Autopolis will be another tough race for the team.
