Michelin has shed some light on why it has decided to end its involvement in the GT500 class of SuperGT at the end of the current season:
that the 2023 season will be its last in the top class of Japan’s top sportscar series, where it supplies Nissan’s two works NISMO Zs, although it plans to maintain a presence in the GT300 division.
Hiroaki Odashima, Michelin Japan’s motorsport boss, admitted that an increased emphasis on sustainability and durability elsewhere in motorsport had lessened the value of SUPER GT as an arena where solutions for other series can be trialled. “The sporting appeal of GT500 hasn’t changed, but seeing as its value to us is as a ‘laboratory’, if the way we can use what we learn changes, the value of staying there decreases. That is the main reason we are suspending our GT500 activities.
