Works Honda driver Hideki Mutoh has announced his decision to step back from SUPERGT next year. He leaves the series with one GT300 title and several race victories to his name Full story:
Announcing his decision on Wednesday, Mutoh revealed that he will not return for what would have been his 13th full-season in Japan’s premier racing series in 2023.
“Of course, winning or losing is important when it comes to participating in races, but I no longer want to run with my eyes closed. I don't think so." With ninth the best result he could muster in the eight-round championship, Mutoh spent the next two years in the GT300 class with Mugen, winning the title in his second year of participation alongside Yuhki Nakayama in the Honda CR-Z.
However, this partnership failed to yield desired results and, after four seasons in which they had only one podium to show for their efforts, Mutoh and Mugen split after the end of the 2020 campaign.Mutoh spent most of the 2021 season on the sidelines, save for a cameo outing at Kunimitsu to replace an ill Tadasuke Makino, but returned to action again this year to lead ARTA in GT300.
