Ordonez now heads to Belgium for the 24-hour race at Spa this coming weekend, prior to jetting around Europe, the United States, the Middle East and Australia before arriving back in Japan ahead of the 1,000-km race at Suzuka on August 17-18. SUPER GT, Japan's most popular spectator sport, enjoys huge support from the motorsport fraternity throughout the country, where eight races at six different tracks regularly bring in crowds of over 50,000 per event. Since Nissan launched its GT3 customer car program last year, the number of Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 entries has surged to four in SUPER GT's GT300 class, equaling the series' premier class, GT500, where the car is the defending champion, having taken the Driver's title for the last two seasons. The marque now makes up some 20% of the entire 40-car field in this wildly popular series.
