Three-time SFormula champion Naoki Yamamoto declares his 2022 season an improvement over last year, but says he still can't be satisfied:
Yamamoto suffered a miserable return season with Nakajima last year after making the switch from Dandelion Racing, with which he won the 2020 title, placing 13th overall with a best finish of sixth.
"Looking just at the results, last year was terrible and we finished the year unable to get a single good result," said Yamamoto."This year I scored a pole position and won a race, and in the last race I was able to come through from P13 to P6 and score decent points, so it feels like things have improved.
"He showed his speed this year and it was natural for him to win the title. However, I am a racing driver and I am determined not to let him beat me, so if I get a chance next year, of course I want to beat him."Yamamoto notched up his 100th start in Formula Nippon/Super Formula in Sunday's Suzuka finale, with his sixth-place finish marking his best result of the year other than his Motegi victory.
