🏁 Suzuka Sunday Series | Round 2 🇯🇵

Another valuable step forward in Jackson’s racing journey.

The Takeishi Technical Racing Honda machine was set up to perfection, allowing Jackson to set a new personal best lap time and secure a front row start at the iconic Suzuka Circuit.

For a rider competing in just his third race aboard the NSF250, it was another encouraging sign of progress.

Sunday presented a new challenge altogether. Heavy rain transformed an already technical circuit into a demanding test of skill, confidence, and adaptability. Jackson launched from the front row with a holeshot and led the race in the opening stages before settling into the battle with some of Japan’s more experienced riders.

After making a late-race pass and pushing forward, Jackson unfortunately lost the front with less than two laps remaining and was unable to finish.

While the result wasn’t what we hoped for, the weekend delivered exactly what young racers need most: experience.

New personal best.

Front row start.

First wet race aboard the NSF250.

More laps racing at the front of a competitive field.

The lessons learned this weekend will prove just as valuable as a trophy.

Racing has a way of testing both skill and character. The focus now is simple: debrief, learn, improve, and prepare for the next opportunity.

Thank you to everyone for the messages of support from Australia, Japan, and around the world. They genuinely mean a lot.

And to the incredible team at TTR Racing, Honda Racing School Suzuka, and Honda Racing Corporation, thank you for your continued belief, guidance, and support.

Love this process. The journey continues. 💪
