Haruka is so lucky to have a friend that can cheer him up. Yeah, the result wasn't as what he hoped for but there's always next time.

Feels like they are building up into the finale with a redemption.

Komaki motors got new sponsors which helps them to keep on going in the F4 race and now Haruka is fully determined & improving himself and giving his all to win the 1st place in the race.

Well not too much story left at this point, Haruka will win next episode and that's it. Kouya... feels like he was struggling a bit with relevance this episode haha.

Hopefully next episode manages to round things for the main characters but tbh I'm finding kinda hard to stay invested in the side characters much at this point.

And another perfect episode here. It might get a little repetitive, but that's just how the sport is; the anime actually manages to juggle all the characters very well. Kouta's facial expressions and VA are both top notch once again; Satsuki's struggles with his own body (while trying to be a little shit teammate) are actually very real; Haru suddenly getting sponsors and still being so bashful about the whole cheering thing is adorable... and there's still stuff left to teach as well. Can't say the viewers aren't treated well here, with a good balance of both off-track everything as well as actual racing.

Kouya wanting to help out with the car tests by pressing the pedal was so cute lmao

The sponsorship recruitment paid off! This is such a big break for Komaki motors. They were just talking about how parts of the car are supposed to be replaced after every race, but smaller teams can’t afford it. The community rallying behind Haruka is going to be such a game changer

On the Belsorisso side, it’s good to see Satsuki back in the car. After being sidelined for so long, we see the effects of Formula racing on the body. Here’s a guy who’s been racing for a living for a while and even he’s throwing up after dealing with the G forces. They really emphasised the “sport” aspect of motorsports in this episode.

Great advice satsuki gave to Toushi as well. Everything is in place for a very good finale next week. I’m gonna be sad to see this end for sure. Easily been troyca best project in a while.

Good thing that those small business owners came together to offer their support so that Komaki Motors has extra tires and other parts. With that I hope that Haruka gets at least 3rd place so that he gets on the podium.

Despite finishing 7th, Komaki Motors' high moment was Kouya getting sponsors for them, and as much as Satsuki is almost getting better and discharged, the local shopping center scraping together to be a sponsor to help Haruka proceed, they could not be any more happier. It's the same for Belsorriso, though Toshiki is fine eitherway that Satsuki is back for a quick test run, though it soon takes a toll on his entire being.

Alice and Kota having their small talk, though he can't quite get over that indirect kiss. While Komaki Motors instead goes for technicality to better fine-tune their sole F4 machine, belsorriso instead challenges their drivers in a 5-lap race to determine the best driver that would be the ones representing them in the actual race. The pressure for Toshiki by having Satsuki chase directly under his tail, he has always been behind Satsuki, and wants to claim the 1st position just like Satsuki always has in prior races, which he did.

The small sponsors are quite the push for Haruka, and Sae wants Koya to cover Haruka's story from ground to the podium.

Give it your all, Haruka. Koya's story depends on you to deliver your best.

I think Blondie is being too reckless. I understand that he wants to get back to racing, but this could potentially worsen his current condition.

Also, it was so refreshing to see Haruka acquire several new sponsors! Now he has a higher chance of winning.

Very wholesome setup for the finale, both scenes of the village buisness sponsoring Komaki Motors and Satsuki helping Toshiki on what it means to be a race leader really left a fuzzy feeling on me throughout the whole episode

Hmm I love that they got a sponsor again especially endearing cause it's the villagers.

Love seeing each team their own struggles.

Dunno but I kinda lost interest in camera dude, works a bit on my nerves now.

I hope satsuki will see his no 1 fan and don't get too cocky and ahead of himself and the recovery.
