DAY1

COCO: 35.9 Alan: 36.0 Jhon: 37.3 — with 57 laps, likely the highest lap count. At the morning briefing, I started by saying: “Best lap times don’t matter. What matters is the average of all three riders.” We’ve made major changes to the team from last year into […]

ALMERIA

The test begins. Can you feel this moment? The 2026 TSR team has come together on the other side of the world from Japan— and now, we begin to run. This didn’t happen by chance or by mere impulse. That’s exactly why— we must deliver the results. That […]

Departure

How do you interpret this word? That’s what makes Japanese so interesting— its meaning can change from person to person. The trailer departed this morning, and the main team will leave tomorrow at 8 a.m., heading south across the Eurasian continent— an 1,800 km journey. This is the […]

France

I arrived on Tuesday. The Japanese and European teams have come together and begun preparations. The young French mechanics have a really great character— they’re bringing a nice energy. Watching TV at a friend’s house, I saw that the Olympics were being held in Milan. Seeing it from […]

Continent

Yesterday, my phone suddenly rang out loudly. It was a severe wind warning alert. Recently, storms with heavy rain have been causing major damage. I sincerely pray for everyone affected, and hope for a swift recovery. Today, it’s the wind. I had plans to meet Bruno at a […]

Into a new era

To the people of Japan, Thank you for your hard work during the election. This result is the path we have chosen. Who won or lost— that’s not what truly matters. To win, there must be those who accept defeat. It’s the same in racing— I always say […]

Meeting

We held a TSR team meeting this morning at 9 a.m. Spain time. I’ve lost count of how many times we’ve done this since last year. It all started when we began restructuring the team for 2026. It’s a very good thing. Meanwhile, in Spain, there has been […]

Flower

Beautiful! Under the blue sky— how incredibly beautiful it is. I’m not much of a photographer, and I just took this with my phone, so I’m not sure if it truly comes across. It’s a flower that blooms by the roadside around the same season every year. I’ve […]
