Toyota’s Suzuka qualifying woes pinned on tyre selection

None of the six Toyota GR Supra crews were able to progress beyond Q1 on Saturday, with the eight-car pole shootout being contested entirely by Honda and Nissan teams.
Best of the Toyota runners was the Yokohama-equipped #19 Racing Project Bandoh car in ninth place, with the 10th-placed Cerumo entry the highest of the marque’s five Bridgestone-shod machines.
