Michelin will continue to supply tyres to SUPER GT’s GT300 class next season despite its withdrawal from the GT500 category.At the time, it was left deliberately vague as to whether Michelin would continue to supply tyres to customer teams in the GT300 class.The only GT300 team currently running on Michelins is BMW Team Studie, and it is understood that the firm did not consider it worthwhile financially to continue its commitments in SUPER GT supplying only a single car.
One team that is thought likely to make the move to Michelin in 2024 is Toyota squad Shade Racing, which currently uses Dunlop tyres.While there has been no official word on which tyre manufacturer will supply the two NISMO-run GT500 cars in 2024, it appears overwhelmingly likely that the deal will go to Bridgestone.
His place for those races was taken by Masataka Yanagida, who helped the squad secure a victory in Round 3 at Suzuka.
