D'Station Racing - still in with a chance at the Super GT double header finale this weekend

 

 

What has already happened has already happened for the D’Station Racing team as they have to move on and prepare themselves for the final double header round of their domestic Super GT Series from Motegi this coming weekend.

This weekend is a double header by virtue of the series making up for what should have been their third round of the 2026 from Sepang – an event that was at first postponed before cancelled altogether due to rising freight costs brought about by the escalating conflict within the Gulf so there will be double the usual championship points on offer this time around for both the GT500 and GT300 classes.

 

Having been forced to lose the driving services of their Team Manager Tomonobu Fujii, former team Super Taikyu Series racer Tsubasa Kondo has stepped up to the breach in support of Charlie Fagg’s distant championship chances going into these two races.

Having lead the GT300 championship during the first half of the season, the #777 Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 crew now sit down in sixth, twenty-five points off the lead car but with twenty-six points being on off at the end of each slightly shorter race than usual sees the Englishman still in with a mathematical chance.

 

Indeed, the pressure will be upon those ahead of them in class in the knowledge that damage in race one could scupper their championship chances going into the round 8 season finale with success ballast only being applied to the rescheduled round three race on top of the usual FIA-GT3 imposed balance of performance criteria.

With some other driver changes also being imposed upon the some of the five crews ahead of them in the Drivers Championship for varying reasons, there is still much to race for in these two head-to-head races this weekend.
