'It wasn't a time that I set with confidence.' Naoki Yamamoto may have set the pace in last week's SFormula test, but feels no closer to working out the cause for his woes this year:
Nakajima Racing driver Yamamoto set the quickest time of the two-day test on the afternoon session of the opening day, posting a 1m21.897s to outpace nearest rival Tadasuke Makino by 0.112s, also topping the second day.
Speaking after topping the opening day, Yamamoto said that the Nakajima squad has yet to fully understand why he was able to show such strong pace after a difficult first half of the season. "Also, not everyone was using OTS or new tyres, so it's hard to evaluate. But I want to understand why I was able to set such a good time and make use of this for the second half of the season."Pressed for more details on his issues so far this season, Yamamoto replied:"Basically, I've never been able to feel enough grip. We're not sure if that's because of the aerodynamics or the mechanical side.
