Interview - After a one-year absence, here's why Honda GT300 squad YogiboRacing is here to stay in SuperGT this time around: misato_SUPERGT
It was hard to miss the bright baby blue Yogibo NSX GT3 in its first year of competition in 2021. With former Direxiv boss Haga helming the effort, the squad made an impact with its imaginative promotional efforts with Yogibo's line of cushions and bean bags.
That followed a one-year diversion into the GT World Challenge Asia series with a Ferrari 488 GT3 run by B-Max Racing, which Haga says was a decision taken as the Japanese distributor of Yogibo products, WebShark, bought out the US-based main company in late 2021. “We were certain they would be a good partner that we can trust and rely on, which is why we made our deal,” says Haga. “In principle, we don’t share data [with UpGarage], but Servus is very familiar with the NSX, and that will really help us to get good results this year.”
“Our two drivers were really fast last year and caught my eye,” says Haga. “They are very flexible and they are absorbing everything. You can tell they are making new discoveries all the time with their feedback. They have to gain experience, and that will take time, but they are already improving with every test session and I expect them to deliver good results.
“I want other drivers to come to think of us that driving for Yogibo Racing will be a big step for their future. This season I will continue to follow Japanese F4 with interest.”
