Tadasuke Makino will sit out practice and qualifying for this weekend's Suzuka SUPER GT round as a precaution following his airborne Super Formula crash last weekend.
Makino must complete one-third distance of the 77-lap race as per the regulations, meaning 26 laps.
Team Kunimitsu team director Kazuhiro Kojima said: ”It's a big relief to see Makino well and able to come to the circuit after being involved in such a big crash. I would like to thank all those involved for their efforts. The same thing happened in 2021, when Makino was unable to participate in the opener at Okayama as he recovered from a bout of meningitis and was replaced by Hideki Mutoh.
