2023
Full participation in the All Japan Road Race Championship J-GP3 class with Japan Post Honda Dream TP. Reunited with Chihiro Koyama, who had taught me the fundamentals of riding since childhood. Receiving precise advice from Koyama after each race, I showed remarkable growth. In my first year with the team, I achieved my first victory at the Okayama International Circuit and finished 3rd in the series standings for 2023.
2024
Full participation in the All Japan Road Race Championship J-GP3 class with Japan Post Honda docomo business TP. I won the opening round at Motegi, finished 2nd in the second round at Sugo and third at Tsukuba, and placed 3rd at the Oita Autopolis round. I also won at Okayama in the fifth round, earning podium finishes in every race so far. With Suzuka being the last round, I was at the top of the series standings. The final round was a fierce battle with the reigning champion, Ono, but I narrowly lost and finished 2nd in the series standings. Additionally, I participated as a substitute rider in the Moto3 class at the MotoGP Japanese Grand Prix. The decision was made on Wednesday during race week, and it was announced on Thursday when I arrived. I completed my first Moto3 race in 20th position. I also served as a reporter for the Daijiro Cup and offered advice to children.
