Mr. Muroya, whose plane was bedecked in FALKEN colors from this race, he demonstrated outstanding aerial speed and precision in the qualifying and final to claim his first victory in this season. He will be competing in Chiba for the next race, where he won his first ever victory last year. We are looking forward to seeing even greater success from Mr. Muroya in the near future.
Yoshihide Muroya is an outstanding pilot whose hard-won skills have taken him to competitions around the world while earning him wide recognition on the global stage. Meanwhile, FALKEN is a brand that is well known in the world and throughout the world for high-performance tires developed using the latest cutting-edge technologies. Recognizing the strong compatibility between this remarkable pilot and FALKEN's own brand image, SRI was pleased to sign a sponsorship agreement with Mr. Muroya in 2015.
