Matsushita switches to TGM for 2024 Super Formula season
Matsushita has been chosen to drive TGM’s #55 SF23 car starting from this weekend’s opening round at Suzuka, taking the place of Turkish driver Cem Bolukbasi in the team lineup. This completes the 2024 Super Formula grid, with Matsushita being the final driver for the upcoming season that includes races at Suzuka, Autopolis, Sugo, Fuji, and Motegi. The second driver for TGM had remained a mystery for a while, with Matsushita ultimately being selected after testing alongside other potential drivers. Matsushita, a seasoned Super Formula and Super GT competitor, aims to rebound with TGM after a challenging 2023 season with B-Max Racing. His experience and success in both series make him a valuable addition to the team. Matsushita will also continue his campaign in the Super GT’s GT500 class, partnering with Tomoki Nojiri in ARTA’s #8 Honda Civic Type R.
