Racing Weekend Results: Lexus LC GT 500 Teams Suffer First Defeat in Super GT Round 5

Kevin August 7th, 2017

Another busy weekend for Lexus racing wraps up, here’s a breakdown of the action.


Super GT Round Five

For the first time this season, a Lexus LC GT 500 did not finish first in Japan’s Super GT series — the ZENT CERUMO team of Yuji Tachikawa & Hiroaki Ishiura was the top ranked Lexus team in third place atthis weekend’s Round 5 race at Fuji Speedway:

On the plus side, all six LC GT 500 teams finished in the top ten. Super GT Round 6 is scheduled for Ocotober 7-8 in Thailand.


IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship

The 3GT Racing No. 14 Lexus RC F GT3 recorded an eighth-place result in the GTD class in Sunday’s IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship race at Road America with drivers Robert Alon and Sage Karam.

The No. 15 Lexus RC F GT3 finished 10th in class on the Wisconsin road course with drivers Jack Hawksworth and Scott Pruett.

Hawksworth turned the fastest lap in the GTD class, a lap of 2:07.399 on the 4.048-mile, 14 turn circuit.
