Taiyo Furusato

[Graduated in 2019] Competing in Moto3™ (2022 - Present)

I enrolled in HRS Suzuka (SRS at the time) because I was attracted by the idea of having a path to challenge the world. I was able to learn in a wonderful environment that is unparalleled in the world, with school motorcycles, coaching by proven instructors, and the opportunity to ride on the track of international standard. Also, by training myself in a tough environment, I could pave the way to the World Championship. I will continue to work hard based on what I learned at HRS Suzuka, and I look forward to racing on the highest stage in the future with the juniors who have been trained at the school.

Yuki Tsunoda

Graduated in 2016, participating in Formula 1 (2021~)

I decided to enroll in this school because I thought it was a realistic route to becoming an F1 driver and because I love Honda. I think this school has a good environment for learning about racing and gives us an opportunity to move up greatly. I also learned how to behave as a person and as an athlete at this school, and I feel that what I learned there is still useful now that I'm an F1 driver.
After graduating, I participated in races with the awareness that I was a member of "Honda drivers," and this strengthened my awareness as a racing driver. It's a tough world where you're always expected to achieve results, but on the other hand, if you achieve results, you'll have the chance to move on to the next step with Honda's support. The road to becoming a racing driver, starting from HRS Suzuka, is very attractive.
