For one member of Team Mugen, working with Liam Lawson in last month's SFormula test brought back memories of another foreign driver who had success in the series:
Lawson will race in Super Formula this year after two seasons in Formula 2, and had his first taste of the Japanese championship in December’s post-season rookie test at Suzuka driving the #15 car raced last season by Ukyo Sasahara.
Engineer Tomo Koike, who ran Sasahara to two wins last season, said that working with Lawson reminded him of Palou, of whose Nakajima Racing crew he was part in 2019 before joining Mugen. “There are still some things he can improve, sector three [including the hairpin and Spoon Curve] especially, but in sector one he was already one of the fastest.
“His comments are also intelligent even though he is just 20 years old; he seems much more mature. I have enjoyed working with him so far.”
