IRL: Tony Kanaan Makes A One-Off Appearance In The Japanese Formula Nippon Series At Suzuka AGR

Tony Kanaan will continue his off-season of racing when he makes a one-off appearance in the Japanese Formula Nippon series at Suzuka on Nov. 17-18.

The Brazilian, who finished third in this year’s IndyCar Series championship, is expected to line up for one of the teams powered by Honda engines, although the team he will race with has not been confirmed.

“I am honored to accept the invitation and look forward to the event, “ Kanaan told autosport.com. “To be part of the Formula Nippon series is a new challenge, and I’m very excited to get in the car. It’s an awesome opportunity for me to try another car at another venue. “

Kanaan won on his last visit to Japan, which was the IndyCar Series event at Twin Ring Motegi early in the season.
