Iori Kimura is a Japanese-Russian racing driver who came up through the junior single-seater ranks in Japan, most notably winning the 2023 Super Formula Lights championship before adding the 2025 Porsche Carrera Cup Japan title, experience that broadened his motorsport background beyond open-wheel machinery. He has also competed in Super GT with Kondo Racing, giving him exposure to endurance-style sports car racing alongside his single-seater career. That combination of open-wheel and GT experience formed the foundation for his step up to Super Formula.[1]
In Super Formula, Kimura has driven for San-Ei Gen with B-Max Honda/M-TEC, piloting the HR-417E-powered car across five career starts without a win, podium, or championship to his name. His most recent season saw him record zero wins and zero podiums across five rounds, finishing twelfth in the standings, and his current Racer Rating of 4,837 places him 279th among active drivers on a scale where the sport's elite sit between 10,000 and 11,500. His status is now listed as retired, closing out a Super Formula career that remains a limited but notable chapter following his junior championship successes.[2]
