Tomoki Nojiri responds to his defeat by new SFormula team-mate Liam Lawson with pole position for Sunday's second race at Fuji:
Two-time champion Nojiri posted a 1m21.196s at the end of the seven-minute Q2 pole shootout to take his 15th career pole by a margin of nearly four tenths of a second ahead of Ritomo Miyata.
That was despite the Red Bull junior driver topping his group in Q1 with a faster time than Nojiri managed in his segment. Sho Tsuboi continued Inging's encouraging start to the season in fifth ahead of Kondo Racing's Kenta Yamashita, who survived a track limits investigation in his Q1 segment to bag a spot on the third row.
Nirei Fukuzumi, whose ThreeBond car was repaired overnight after his collision with Giuliano Alesi in Saturday's race, completed the top 10, while Kamui Kobayashi and Tadasuke Makino made up the Q2 order.
