The FUJI 500mile RACE, Round 5 of the 2019 AUTOBACS SUPER GT series, was run on August 4th at Fuji Speedway (4,563m x 175 laps) in Shizuoka Prefecture. The air temperature had risen to 33 degrees Celsius before the start of this 500-mile (805 km) race, the longest in the series, and twice before it was over the Safety Car would come out to control the race, as befitting a tough midsummer endurance race. The winner of the GT500 class race was the No. 6 WAKO’S 4CR LC500 (Kazuya Oshima/Kenta Yamashita), in what was a second consecutive win for the tear following the victory in Round 4 in Thailand. In the GT300 class, the winner was the No. 87 T-DASH Lamborghini GT3 (Tsubasa Takahashi/Andre Couto/Kiyoto Fujinami).
