To Le Mans test

We are still short on things, but preparations are steadily coming together.
Once the engine parts arrive in France and the Japanese crew lands, we will begin assembly for the Le Mans test.
We plan to build three engines, using the tests to verify them while securing the ones for the race.
The chassis, whose direction was decided during the Almeria test, will also be brought to the Le Mans test once we source the missing parts.
At the same time, we must prepare for the Spa race, the Suzuka test, and the race itself.
This year’s schedule is set to rush forward all the way to Suzuka.
I am highly anticipating what kind of direction will come out of the Le Mans test.
The photos show a new cover we made after riders requested a change in the tank shape during the Almeria test.
We will do whatever it takes if it makes things even a little easier for the riders!
To make it easy to see the difference, I will show you two photos: the old tank and the new cover.
