]]>War in Iran has claimed another motor racehttps://turningfortune.com/news/war-in-iran-has-claimed-another-motor-race/https://turningfortune.com/news/war-in-iran-has-claimed-another-motor-race/Super GT is down to seven races in 2026.Fri, 10 Apr 2026 19:21:32 GMT2026-04-10T19:21:32.299ZSports carsSuper GTJon MitchellI hate this so much. Super GT, Japan’s premier sports car championship and the only series left that races Class One cars, had to cancel its Sepang round because the oil shock caused by the U.S./Israel attack on Iran has pushed Malaysia’s economy into a state of emergency. There will now be only seven Super GT rounds in 2026

I will say it again: Motorsports is pro-peace and anti-war!

During his Japanese Grand Prix trip, Verstappen stopped by Fuji Speedway for a Red Bull-sponsored test of the Nissan Z NISMO GT500 car, a top-class contender in Japan’s tragically under-appreciated Super GT series.

He’ll be driving the Huracan EVO2 rather than the new Temerario in the GT300 class, but I don’t expect that to diminish anything about the excellent racing in Super GT.
