Super Formula: Red Bull’s Ayumu Iwasa set for 2024 seat
Japanese driver Ayumu Iwasa, currently third in the F2 standings, is set to race in Super Formula for Team Mugen, replacing Liam Lawson. This will be Iwasa’s first full season of car racing in Japan after racing in Europe since 2019. Despite winning the French F4 title in 2020 and competing in FIA F3 and F2, Iwasa’s Super Formula entry will be crucial in his pursuit of a future F1 drive. Lawson, on the other hand, is likely to take on a full-time F1 reserve role for AlphaTauri while preparing for a potential race seat in 2025. Iwasa’s teammate in Super Formula will be two-time champion Tomoki Nojiri, and their first experience with the Dallara SF23 is expected to be in the post-season Suzuka test on December 6-8, where former Red Bull F1 driver Daniil Kvyat is also set to participate for Nakajima Racing.
