The WedsSport-sponsored #19 Toyota GR Supra of Yuji Kunimoto and Sena Sakaguchi annexing pole position has become a common sight this year. In both Fuji rounds, Suzuka Round 3 and last time out at Sugo, they have been unstoppable over a single lap.
Clearly, Yokohama has been a factor in this one-lap speed. The tyre maker is on the road to recovery from its 2020 nadir and even though the breakthrough win hasn’t materialised yet, you’d bet on it happening sooner rather than later based on recent evidence.
