The next F1 hopefuls hoping to follow Lawson’s footsteps in Japan
After Liam Lawson’s success in Super Formula last year, Theo Pourchaire is hoping to follow in his footsteps as a high-profile gaijin with F1 aspirations. Pourchaire, the reigning F2 champion, comes to Japan with a strong reputation in F1 circles, but he faces a different challenge driving for Team Impul instead of Mugen. His decision to move to Super Formula was driven by a desire for more actual driving and less time on the sidelines as an F1 reserve driver. Pourchaire aims to help Team Impul return to its former glory and is embracing the added responsibility and challenges that come with racing in Super Formula. While his ultimate dream is still to race in F1 and become champion, for now, he is fully focused on Super Formula and making a mark in the series.
