Studie duo Seiji Ara and Tsubasa Kondo - standing in for an absent Augusto Farfus - converted pole into the team’s first GT300 win as an independent team, catapulting themselves to second in the drivers’ standings in the process.
The pair are 12 points adrift of de Oliveira and Kiyoto Fujinami, who won the opening race of the season at Okayama in their Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 and finished third at Suzuka.
