Yokohama Australia is proud to be supporting Jake Jones (aka Drift Squid) at the D1 New Zealand Championship. Jake is certainly one of Australia's hot young driving talents and with no Australian national series the decision was made to compete in the New Zealand D1 series.

Previously, Yokohama has elected not to become involved in Drift within Australia. However through high recommendation, recognition of incredible talent and utmost professionalism, we thought it time to break our traditional boundaries of our ADVAN Sponsorship.



For the competition, Jake has elected to run the Yokohama S.drive(rear) and ADVAN Neova AD08 (front).
