Ritomo Miyata believes that Super Formula title rival Liam Lawson’s recent Formula 1 experience only makes the potential prestige of beating the New Zealander even greater, ahead of this weekend's Suzuka finale.
TOM’S driver Miyata holds an eight-point lead over Lawson ahead of the final two races of the season this weekend, with defending two-time champion Tomoki Nojiri a further two points behind. Since the previous race at Motegi in August, Lawson has made five grand prix starts for AlphaTauri as an injury substitute for Daniel Ricciardo, making a big impression in the process - even if he was ultimately passed up for a full-time 2024 seat.
Hirakawa’s surprise appointment has been viewed as a first step in a closer relationship between Toyota and McLaren in future, one that could have implications for Miyata’s career. “I already talked with Akio -san and Sato-san, I told them my dream and my targets for my future racing career,” he said when asked for his thoughts on Hirakawa’s F1 chance.
