The ones who conquered a stormy Suzuka were #30 Honda HRC's Takumi Takahashi and crew, five wins in a row now. They coolly rode through a developing situation made unreadable by two safety car periods. There must have been split-second decisions inside the pits the whole race. Chasing them, #21 Yamaha's Katsuyuki Nakasuga finished 2nd in his final 8 Hours - that quiet, steady speed really got to me watching this up close.

Honda being strong is fine, but I get the argument that the same faces winning every year gets stale.

BMW as the first foreign brand ever on the podium, taking 47 runs before it happens is honestly the surprising part.

A foreign manufacturer's first podium at the 47th running, that 3rd place is genuinely historic.

32 career wins for Honda, they're basically the lord of Suzuka.

HRC's 5th straight win! Sealing it in this kind of foul weather is just too strong.

Not falling apart in the rough weather really shows HRC's underlying strength.
