台灣Hubauto racing 車隊征戰東瀛最新戰報! 希望大家一起為Tomomi 祈求一定要有旺盛的生命力能早日完全康復，沒有任何後遺症！#TomomiGetwellsoon #ChantforTomomi #為Tomomi祈求早日康復
2017 Super Taikyu Autopolis 站，HubAuto Ferrari 488 GT3 最終獲得了第三名！這個週末車隊發生了許多事情：在週五早上的試車中，我們的引擎發生故障，導致整天的練習都無法進行；接著我們的車隊經理 Tomomi Takezawa 因為近期工作太過辛勞，在週五中午緊急送醫，目前人還在醫院醫治；車隊人員都陷入非常大的低潮.，原本計劃要放棄這一週的比賽... 但經過週五晚上我們在福岡的醫院確定Tomomi狀況比較有改善後，凌晨在開兩個多小時的車回到賽車場，決定車隊要趕工將我們的備用引擎換上，繼續這場比賽！但是因為法拉利更換引擎的工程非常浩大，我們全體人員皆全力趕工，最後在下午第一節的測時結束前五分鐘將車子完成並送到賽車場上！最後我們綜合排位獲得第六名的成績。
星期日的決賽由我起跑，因為這個賽道是我一次來比賽，決賽前因為車隊發生的許多狀況，我在決賽前僅跑了約15圈，對我來說是很大的挑戰...起跑後我發生一些失誤，但是在後半段我慢慢抓到節奏，之後將車子交給我的隊友 Yuya Sakamoto, 他展現非常穩健的速度慢慢講差距拉近；最後一棒為 Hiroki Yoshimoto, 他也展現很好的速度，並且在最後二圈守住其它GT3車輛的攻勢，最終我們獲得第三名的成績！
這是繼去年我們在Suzuka獲得第二名後，再一次站上頒獎台！
我在這邊要特別感謝所有車隊的夥伴，沒有你們的努力，我們今天是沒有可能在這麼艱辛的狀況下得到獎杯，更證明了比賽是需要全隊的團隊合作，並且奮戰到最後一刻才有可能獲得成果的！
最後我獻上最大的祝福，希望我們的車隊經理Tomoni能夠早日康復，我們全隊的人員都期待再次在賽車場上看到你的笑容！
2017 Super Taikyu Autopolis race, HubAuto Ferrari 488 GT3 finished 3rd position!
It had been a very difficult weekend for us...we had engine issue in the first official practice section on Friday morning so we were forced to quit all practices. Then our team manager Tomomi Takezawa was sent to the hospital because she had been too busy for last couple weeks.
All team members were very depressed and we were consider to quit the race...But after we got the confirmation from hospital that she was getting stable, we drove two hours from Fukuoka to our hotel on Saturday morning, we decided to continue the race and all team crews started to replace our spare engine in the early morning and we finally managed to bring the car back to the track before last 5 mins of the qualify 1! We ended up with P6 for the qualify. What a great job!
I stated the race on Sunday. I was under very high pressure bucause I never been to this track and I only drove 15 laps before the race because we had engine issue on Friday... I made some mistakes in the begging of th race but I managed to get better lap times in my last part of section. The I handed over the car to my teammate Yuya Sakamoto. He did a great job and brought the gap down. Hiroki Yoshimoto took the last section of the race, he also did a good job and he managed to keep P3 in the last two laps!
This is our 2nd trophy after the result of P2 in 2016 Super Taikyu in Suzuka last year. I would like to thanks all our team members because we will not have this result without all your amazing teamwork! Especially we had such difficult situations over this weekend.
Because our teamwork and we didn't give up until last minute, we got the trophy today!
Hope God bless our team manager Tomoni. Please get well soon! We all hope to see your smile again in the circuit very soon! 🙏🏻
