With less bad luck, ukyo_sasahara is convinced he could have been fighting Mugen teammate Tomoki Nojiri for this year's SFormula title:
Besides a victory in July's Fuji race, Sasahara's next-best results are a pair of seventh-place finishes, leaving him seventh in the standings with only next month's Suzuka double-header to go.
"I have mixed emotions [about the season so far], it’s been like a roller coaster. At Suzuka I just want to aim for pole-to-win, twice, and show how fast we are."After the opening round, Sasahara found himself starting towards the back of the grid for Round 3 at Suzuka after being baulked by Yuji Kunimoto in qualifying, while a strategy error cost him dearly in the next race at Autopolis.
He still managed to salvage seventh in a wet first race which featured very little overtaking, and then eighth the following day from the back of the grid despite almost not making the start due to a driveshaft issue.
