Tsugio Matsuda's Nissan Z racer was shredded after flying into a fence at Suzuka's famous 130R corner, but he was reportedly "not significantly injured" after the hit.Today's SuperGT race at Suzuka was ended early after a major crash at the exit of 130R brought out a red flag. The incident involved three cars, but Nissan driver Tsugio Matsuda and Lamborghini driver Kosuke Matsuura took the bigger hits.
Matsuura's Lamborghini Huracan GT3 is positioned off the kerb on the outside, while Matsuda's Nissan Z is forced to go slightly off-track to clear the Lamborghini and another car. As the racing line narrows on exit, the Nissan spins across the nose of the third car and into the grass on the outside of the corner. Matsuda's Z catches air underneath its floor and flies upward, colliding with a catch fence.
