After winning a second SFormula title on Saturday, Tomoki_Nojiri closes out a dominant campaign with a long-awaited second win of 2022:
From pole position, Team Mugen driver Nojiri was never truly threatened on his way to an eighth career win in Japan's top single-seater series, having already wrapped up the title on Saturday.
Sasahara was first to pit when the window opened on lap 10, while Otsu and Tsuboi followed in him next time round. Nojiri duly came in on lap 13 and maintained his lead from Otsu, while Miyata followed Nojiri into the pits along with Sacha Fenestraz and Ryo Hirakawa also among those to pit under the safety car.
As Tsuboi sunk down the order, Naoki Yamamoto finished sixth in his 100th Super Formula start, marking his best finish of the year in dry conditions, leading home Nakajima Racing teammate Toshiki Oyu.
