Super Formula 2025 - Round 10 - FINALE

The 2025 Super Formula season concludes at Suzuka Circuit for the season finale, and as expected, it's a three-race finale to compensate for the recent cancellation of the final race at Fuji due to foggy conditions. With the title battle heating up between Sho Tsuboi, Ayumu Iwasa, and Kakunoshin Ohta, this is an event fans will remember forever.

In the first part of the season, Ayumu Iwasa narrowly defeated Tomoki Nojiri and Igor Fraga. In the second part, Igor Fraga achieved his first Super Formula victory by overcoming Tadasuke Makino and title contender Kakunoshin Ohta. Finally, in the last race of the season, Ayumu Iwasa secured his status as the 2025 season champion by beating Ren Sato and Kakunoshin Ohta.
