Jann Mardenborough Takes the Lead in the All Japan F3 Championship After His 2nd Consecutive Win
As the season progresses, his speed has been becoming even more apparent. The 2011 European GT Academy champion, Jann Mardenborough from NISMO’s global driver exchange program, won 2 races in a row in the 6th round of the All Japan F3 Championship.
The 6th round of the series was held at the Twin Ring Motegi circuit, consisting of races 11 and 12. Qualifying on Saturday the 20th was in the wet and while he settled for 2nd place in the qualifying for race 11, he marked the fastest time in the qualifying for the 12th race right before the chequered flag, securing his pole position.
The 12th race held on Sunday the 21st was under full dry conditions. Starting from pole position, Jann started at a high pace from the beginning, opening the gap with 2nd place and below. By the 10th lap he was a full 4 seconds ahead of 2nd place and went on to prove his worth by winning both rounds at the Motegi circuit.
As a result, Jann’s point standings for this race is 85, a full 19 points ahead of Kenta Yamashita in 2nd place. He has a definite advantage now in winning the series with only 2 rounds and 4 races left in the season, hosted in Okayama and Sugo. Keep an eye on Jann for the last races of the season!
