From what I saw of him in Super GT, All-Japan F3 and Macau, Makino might be the best Japanese prospect to come around in a long, long, LONG time.
Makino has impressed greatly in tin tops, but his single seater record isn't any better than Fukuzumi's. I'd say it's worse.

1st year in cars: 1st in F4 for Fukuzumi, 2nd in F4 for Makino
2nd year in cars: 4th in F3 with 2 wins for Fukuzumi, 5th with 0 wins for Makino

Fukuzumi was also a bit younger when he started racing cars.

Japanese F3 isn't spec, and Makino was driving for TODA whose in-house engines were inferior to the competition.

Aparently only 18 cars are expected this season

On an other note, Threebond Tomei engine is likely to not be competing in FIA F3 as Threebond Tomei and Drago Corse will collaborate for a 2 car entry in the 2017 Japanese Formula 3 championship

Saying "I want to finish 10th in points" is pretty stupid as well.

Isn't the entry deadline imminent? You'd think any additional teams would have said something by now.

Fears that Mucke Motorsport may not be able to attract a driver for European F3 this season have receded after team boss Peter Mucke dropped a heavy hint that his star driver from the 2016 German Formula 4 Championship will step up.
Mike Ortmann, who finished third in the F4 rankings behind Joey Mawson and Mick Schumacher, was confirmed as having signed for Mucke for the 2017 season in PR from the ADAC, which promotes German F4.
"He's ready for the next class up," said Mucke, whose only single-seater programmes are in F4 and F3.
"When you've been around the block as many times as me, you get an eye for whether a driver can hack it in the next class up, or whether you tell him to stay in the same race category for another year."

That´s wrong.

Maybe mucke decided to shift him in the Gt programm instead of running only 1 car in Fia F3

Anyway Fortec is clearly out of the game as they do not even appear on the Provisional Entry list on the fia F3 website
