It is a very important test.So team Le Mans needs experienced driver.Kamui Kobayashi's team mate Ryo Hirakawa isn't bad driver. He won two races in Super GT(Japanese top GT category race) in 2015.But he never gotton a podium finish in Super Formula.I think this team wants a target of comparison.I'm happy if Loic come again SF in 2016.Super formula will determine the race schedule after WEC schedule announced.Super Formula races held to avoid WEC race weekend.So Super Formula is the attractive for racing drivers who want to participate in both series WEC and Super Formula.

From what I heard, Loic Duval already talked with Toyota and Team LeMans for his 2015 season at Super Formula but failed to meet agreement.

Well, because everyone are still new with Super Formula's Yokohama tyres, I think by attending the test he will be able to catch up with other top SF drivers.

I don't know if Vandoorne was testing with the Honda F1 engine or the Honda SF engine. I know that the Honda F1 engine has upsetful problems but I don't know about the Honda Super Formula engine.

At this season Honda suffered engine problems only at few times.
But one of them is when at the first race of this season with #16 Team Mugen.
Ironically it happened at last lap when the #16 car was at 3rd position.

Hello
hvr777>>
You watched Loic's interview in Super Formula facebook page?
I was relieved to hear Loic is in love with this race even now.
Thank you for interested in this race.
It was very cold test.
J P Oliveira made fastest in Day1 morning session almost dry condition.
S Vandoorne drove in a beautiful line. His drive without disturbing the line was moving me.
Vandoorne drove about 20 laps because of his engine truble and he share one car with other driver.
J P drove 35 laps or more.
In Day1 second session, Yuuhi Sekiguchi got a fastest time in this practice session.
At that time, he drove little bit rain condition with dry tires.
The rain was followed after the middle stage of the session.
So no drivers could break his time.
At the paddock area, a lot of fans waited for S Vandoorne to get his autograph.
In his official interview, he was surprised why so lot of fans gathered even test day.
I'm interested his coment, other country's fans dont go to GP2 test days?
