TOM’S #37 car risks making dubious piece of SUPER GT history
The #37 car of Ukyo Sasahara and Giuliano Alesi has struggled this season, accumulating only nine points in the first six races. This puts them at risk of finishing last among the 15 GT500 crews, a rarity for the powerhouse team TOM’S. Their tire suppliers, Bridgestone, have not been able to blame for their performance, unlike other teams in recent years. The team made a wrong tire choice in the Sugo race due to lower temperatures, causing them to struggle with tire pick-up. Sasahara’s first year with Bridgestone and the GR Supra has also been a factor in their difficulties. Despite these challenges, team boss Jun Yamada is confident that the results will improve if they retain the same drivers next year.
