Japanese GT Championship (FKA JGTC) with GT500 and GT300 races. I found Nismo TV on Youtube has all of the series, plus a few other racing series as well.

Jensen Button, Heikki Kovalainen and Kamui Kobayashi are competing in the series this year.

Also, it should come as NO surprise that there's a Hatsune Miku livery, because Japan

Good Smile (the company who sponsors that car) are a high-end action figure manufacturer. They’re responsible for the quality Figma and Nendoroid line of toys.

Needless to say, their models of the various Good Smile Racing vehicles are amazing.

They once made a BMW Z3 GT3 that transforms into Hatsune Miku.

Other news:

JGTC and DTM have agreed to unify their technical rules, so from next year(?) the cars will be able to compete in each other’s series.

This year will see two demonstration races: one in Japan and one in Germany, where cars from each series will be competing together. For now they will be BoP’d to equalise their performance, but once the rules are unified they should be equal to begin with.

At the moment the Japanese cars have more horsepower and the German ones have more aerodynamics. After this, the German ones will be faster and the Japanese ones will have more downforce.

If only Australia had of followed this, we'd have a world wide formula again like Group A.

I've watched Jenson Button's YouTube page a couple of times, basically they cover the race like any other broadcast.
