SUPER GT eyes reduction in corner speeds after Sugo crash
“During last month’s race, Honda driver Yamamoto suffered serious injuries after a collision with the Kondo Racing Nissan. Natori, the Nissan driver, was penalized for causing the collision, which occurred when he attempted to enter the pits but failed to notice Yamamoto behind him. CCTV and on-board footage of the incident was shown during a special media briefing that revealed plans to revise sporting and technical regulations for safety improvements by 2024. The discussion includes reducing cornering speeds and adding safety-oriented items to next year’s regulations. The GTA is also addressing the issue of cornering speeds through discussions with tire manufacturers and considering reducing the number of tire sets available to teams per weekend. Additionally, race director Hattori stated that Natori could have prevented the incident by activating his turn signals and completing another lap before pitting.”
