Thanks for the spot JS, that would seem to be the case. There's not another good reason to skip the test that I can think of.
Although it does leave a question as to why Ryo Hirakawa has apparently been passed over when he did the season in LMP2 a la Tsugio Matsuda before his drive in The-Prototype-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named*. Maybe they have a longer term plan for Hirakawa, or it could just be Kunimoto being plain fast, as expected of the SF champion.
*Seriously, let's not let another discussion be ruined with the same circular arguments.
