Tsutomu Tojo (Team Tom's engineer) 2nd round post race analysis
https://ameblo.jp/tsutomutojo/entry-12617112597.html
*Toyota squad (BS user) chose tires for 2nd round for the following reasons:
1) Road surface temperature becomes high.
2) Lap time (not final result) of each car in the first round.
3) Tire wear due to success ballast.
*From the above, it became a tire of a balanced character for Toyota squad (BS user).
*Tojo analyzes that NSXs tires have different character in each teams, on the other hand.
(#17 NSX and #12 GTR seem to have chosed tires that emphasize tire grip.)
*For the past two rounds, Supra/BS has focused on Sepang test data.
This was because there were insufficient test data in Japan due to the effects of coronavirus and unseasonable cold weather.
*Tojo says that Team Tom's will have a success ballast and a tough race will continue. But it’s a real race to win the series champion.
