Yūya Motojima (元嶋佑弥, Motojima Yūya, born 10 April 1991) is a Japanese racing driver who currently competes in Super GT for JLOC and in the Super Taikyū Series for TKRI.
[2][3] After graduating from the Honda-operated Suzuka Circuit Racing School [ja] and receiving the manufacturer's SRS-Formula scholarship in 2009, Motojima made his formula racing debut in the 2010 Formula Challenge Japan alongside fellow scholarship awardees Kazuki Hiramine and Shinji Nakamura.
Although he repeated his Fuji success with a pole-to-win run, Motojima would drop to sixth in the standings and would lose Honda backing at the end of 2011.
Faced with budget struggles after losing manufacturer backing, Motojima moved to race in the local Autopolis series of the entry-level Super FJ class.
His domination granted him eligibility to contest the year-ending All-Japan final race at Suzuka, where he would triumph over the likes of Kenta Yamashita despite having to crowdfund his way to the grid.
