The first two races of the season went not as good as we hoped for, but with a 4th place in Okayama and 3rd in Fuji last week, we still can be content as at least we scored valuable points in order to stay in the Championship race. There are many reasons for our results, but one thing that was consistent was the bad weather. I'm obviously not trying to blame the weather for not winning, in contrary we managed the fastest time in Fuji in the wet.

It was a busy last week. After the last Okayama Test I took a night flight to L.A. and from there another night flight to Miami. Arriving in the morning in Sebring, I was very excited to get my first laps in the Nissan DeltaWing car. I was too excited to feel tired actually. I didn't know what to really expect, but when I left the pits the first time and turned into the first corner, I couldn't believe how sharp and responsive the car (or should I say Batmobile) reacted. To all those that always doubted that it would turn, I can just say, I have never driven anything before that turns that much! That was a very nice surprise and made me ever more curious of how it will handle in other areas.

It was a fantastic launch of the Nissan DeltaWing in London yesterday. It was great to see the stunned faces of the people that saw the car the first time in reality, just as I looked at it the first time. There have been all kind of reactions to it, something like "looks like a Rocket" to "Batmobile". Well, whatever springs to your mind when you look at it, I think its important to keep in mind that the car, or should I say Racing machine, has just been purpose build and absolutely no time was wasted on thinking about its looks. (looks stunning to me though..)

A year after the disaster, Japan has come a long way in dealing with this horrible tragedy. Not only have I visited Japan many times since then, but I will be there a lot this year while racing in the Super GT Championship. Here are some videos of what others and I think about Japan's current situation.
