ℹ️ About Motegi
The Motegi supergt event takes place at Mobility Resort Motegi in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. This Super GT race features two vehicle classes: GT500 and GT300, with teams competing in a single race format that includes mandatory pit stops for driver changes and refueling. The GT500 class showcases modified prototype cars from Toyota, Honda, and Nissan, all equipped with 2.0L inline-4 turbocharged engines. The GT300 class offers more variety with GT3 cars and JAF-GT cars from various manufacturers.
Mobility Resort Motegi, previously known as Twin Ring Motegi, spans 4.801 km with technical corners and challenging braking zones. Honda built this circuit in 1997, and it remains a signature venue for Japanese motorsport. The facility features a Honda Museum, safety school, and additional tracks, making it a complete racing destination.
The Motegi Super GT race attracts approximately 15 teams in GT500 and 28 teams in GT300. Drivers include top Japanese talent and international racers competing for championship points. The points system rewards the top 10 finishers in GT500 and top 15 in GT300, with success ballast applied throughout the season but removed for the Motegi finale.
Technical regulations for the Super GT series maintain competitive balance between teams. All GT500 cars use monocoques built by Dome, while maintaining visual similarity to their road-going counterparts. Cars utilize carbon fiber chassis, advanced aerodynamics, and sophisticated electronics.
The Super GT series began in 1993 as the All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship before adopting its current name in 2005. Motegi has hosted Super GT races since 1998, building a rich history of close competitions and memorable moments.
As Honda's home circuit, Motegi gives Honda-powered teams extra motivation to perform well. The unique layout crosses under the former oval track twice, creating distinctive racing conditions. Four tire manufacturers—Bridgestone, Dunlop, Michelin, and Yokohama—add strategic complexity to the race.
This Motegi supergt event provides fans with close racing action and technical fascination in a picturesque setting. The combination of cutting-edge race cars, skilled drivers, and the challenging Motegi circuit creates an essential part of Japan's motorsport culture.
