I remember seeing Iwasaki's accident live and thinking we'd just lost him. "Last generation" of GT3 cars or not, that Nissan did its job of protecting him and he went on to race the following round.
Regarding Jann's potential GT500 promotion: I really hope it's on the cards for 2017. I would love to see NISMO add a second car to facilitate it, as well as a full-time GT500 drive for Mitsunori Takaboshi. Maybe you put the two together >_> I wouldn't bust up Matsuda/RQ right now when they're both in their primes and, in my opinion, already cemented as the best driver pairing in series history.
