The 2023 Super GT Series was the last season for the three-time GT500 champion Yuji Tachikawa (pictured in 2015), having participated in the series since 1996.

The 2023 Autobacs Super GT Series was a motor racing championship based in Japan for grand touring cars, sanctioned by the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF) and ran by the GT Association (GTA). It was the thirty-first season of the JAF Super GT Championship, which included the All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship era, and the nineteenth season under the Super GT name. It was also the forty-first overall season of a national JAF sportscar championship dating back to the All Japan Endurance/Sports Prototype Championship.

Team Impul and drivers Kazuki Hiramine and Bertrand Baguette entered the season as the defending GT500 champions, while Kondo Racing and driver João Paulo de Oliveira entered the season as the defending GT300 champions. This was the final season for three-time GT500 champion, Yuji Tachikawa, who announced his retirement at the end of the season.[1][2]

TGR Team au TOM'S won the championship in the GT500 class after having won the previous title in the 2021 season, with Sho Tsuboi and Ritomo Miyata won the Drivers' Championship. In the GT300 class, Saitama Toyopet GreenBrave, Hiroki Yoshida and Kohta Kawaai won the Teams' and Drivers' Championship. Both class championships were won by Toyota teams driving the respective GT500 and GT300 versions of the Toyota GR Supra.[3]

## Regulation changes

[edit]

GTA chairman Masaaki Bandoh outlined the series' environmental initiative plans in November 2022, known as the "Super GT Green Project 2030".[7][1] The series aims to reduce carbon emissions by 50 percent by 2030. As part of this initiative, Super GT made the following regulation changes for 2023:

* Super GT debuted a new, 100 percent sustainable carbon-neutral fuel manufactured by ETS Racing Fuels, a division of Haltermann Carless GmbH. The new ETS Renewablaze GTA R100 racing fuel was introduced to GT500 for the first round of the championship.[8] The GT300 class will continue to use petroleum fuel for the season after feedback gathered in testing.[9]
* The number of tyre sets available to teams per race weekend has been limited to five sets of dry tyres and six sets of wet tyres for 300 kilometre race meetings, one set fewer for each than in 2022. The number of tyre sets available for 450km races would be determined on a case-by-case basis.[6] Ultimately, there would be six sets of dry tyres and seven sets of wet tyres available at all five 450km races, one set fewer for each than in 2022.

## Teams and drivers

[edit]

On 20 February, 2023, the GTA released the series entry list, featuring 15 entries in the GT500 class and 27 entries in the GT300 class. All teams compete under a Japanese license.
