"While Super Formula debuted back in 2013, the championship behind it has been around since the early 1970’s.
First as the All Japan Formula 2000 series in 1973, Switching to Formula 2 in 1978, Then to Formula 3000 a decade later in 1988, and lastly to Formula Nippon, the most famous of its incarnations, in 1996.
The Formula Nippon era was when the series first started to gain mainstream attention, with many drivers from outside of Japan heading east to compete.
Several champions and race winners would go on to Formula 1, making the series a viable route to the top step of the single seater ladder.
However, the late 2000’s saw the series popularity fall into decline, but with the rebranding to Super Formula, that interest has come back.
Now, rather than acting as a feeder series to Formula 1, Super Formula has become the top step of the ladder for domestic competition, with pundits often describing the series as the IndyCar of Japan.
And with a healthy combination of foreign and local talents, a single make spec car, and a calendar featuring all of Japans greatest racing circuits, there’s never been a better time to become a fan of the series."
