.sachafenestraz believes a SFormula title bid is now a real possibility following his breakthrough victory last time out at Sugo: kondoracingteam
Franco-Argentine racer Fenestraz scored a first win in his third season in the Japanese single-seater series in a strategic battle, helped by qualifying second and outdragging poleman Tomoki Nojiri on the run down to Turn 1 at the start.The gap between he and championship leader Nojiri has shrunk to 24 points with five races remaining, starting this weekend at Fuji Speedway.
“Normally I try not to look at the championship, but after my win I know the gap now and we are quite close,” Fenestraz told Motorsport.com.“We can’t afford any more mistakes, because we already had one zero with the brake failure in Round 2. If something like that happens to Nojiri, that will allow us to close the gap. I do think we can fight for it, but there’s still a long way to go.
Fenestraz however cautioned that he and Kondo Racing must improve their qualifying performances to be certain of being able to challenge Nojiri, who has banked 12 bonus points with four pole positions in a row. “We do need to try and match the qualifying pace of Nojiri, because three points for pole is a lot and it can make the difference,” admitted Fenestraz.
