Nojiri said in the wake of last month’s Suzuka finale that the exploits of his title rivals Ritomo Miyata and Liam Lawson on the world stage - as well as Ryo Hirakawa’s Formula 1 testing deal - had put the idea of racing abroad back on his radar.
Excluding SUPER GT’s former annual trip to the Buriram circuit in Thailand, Nojiri last raced outside of Japanese shores when he contested a Formula BMW Pacific race on the streets of Macau back in 2011.
