Not a lot of shakeups at Lexus Gazoo Racing this year it seems.

I wouldn't even be that harsh on them and I just described their season, with some exaggeration, as a dumpster fire burning inside a tyre fire. There have been much less professional outfits to come along, though by the rapidly-rising standards of GT300, they are well behind the curve of even their fellow small-time independents - it's just hard to do a whole lot with an obsolete car, two drivers in their fifties, and no budget.

Fair enough.

I knew they had a disastrous year and maybe I was being a bit harsh with the Andrea Moda comment but they were causing a bit of chaos out there.

I'm all for the smaller independent teams that run on the smell of an oily rag but not if they are a danger to others.

So two weeks after Hirakawa becomes a Red Bull athlete, RB might be going all-in with title sponsorship of car 37. I'm pretty excited.

I could make out a few things just from the preview images, but I'll hold off until someone gets the print copy (the digital one usually comes out 2 weeks after print it seems.)

Happy new year, by the way.

@Japanese Samurai
Which Audi team does Treluyer participate in GT300 New Audi team or existing Audi team???

As NDDP withdraw , B-MAX might sponsor to TEAM IMPUL.

I squinted and strained a whole lot to figure it out, but it seems like Treluyer is being linked to the #21 Hitotsuyama R8, potentially as a third driver or even an outright replacement for Lyons and Fujii.

That's a huge potential story though, to have a former GT500 champion, now a three-time Le Mans winner and World Endurance Drivers' Champion in the time since he's retired from Super GT, coming back to the series in GT300.

Is Benoît Tréluyer really coming back to Super GT? Haven't seen him in the series for 5 years.
