'''Kazuki Fushida''' (born 15 June 1960) is a Japanese F1RWRS driver and former CART and Formula 1 driver. | |||
==[[Formula One]]== | |||
===[[1987 Alternate Formula One season|1987]]: [[Coloni]]=== | |||
By 1987, Fushida was driving for the Italian [[Coloni]] outfit. The Coloni team spent much of the season towards the back of the grid, with Fushida often failing to qualify. However, Fushida took his and Coloni's only points finish with a sixth place at the [[Portuguese Grand Prix]]. | |||
===[[1988 Alternate Formula One season|1988]]: [[Williams]]=== | |||
Fushida's Honda connections landed him a drive with the leading [[Williams]] team alongside [[Nigel Mansell]]. Despite the far superior car, Fushida again only managed a single point - taking a sixth place in [[Australian Grand Prix|Australia]]. Fushida would however set a record that season, by finishing in 7th place a record 7 times that year, a record only equalled by [[Daniel Melrose]] in [[2019 Alternate Formula One season|2019]]. | |||
===[[1989 Alternate Formula One season|1989]]: [[Benetton]]=== | |||
In 1989, Fushida signed for the Benetton team alongside Belgian [[Thierry Boutsen]]. After two failures to qualify, Fushida was dropped by the team and replaced by [[Roberto Moreno]]. | |||
===[[1990 Alternate Formula One season|1990]]: [[Brabham]]=== | |||
Fushida made a return to the Formula One paddock at the [[Mexican Grand Prix]] with the Motor Racing Developments Ltd team, replacing [[David Brabham]] after the Australian had a disagreement with the team bearing his surname. However, this only lasted 4 races, as Fushida was released from the team following disputes with his mechanics, and being accused of dragging the team down, and was replaced with [[Robert Kagan]]. | |||
===[[1991 Alternate Formula One season|1991]]: [[AGS]]=== | |||
Fushida missed out on a full time seat once again for 1991, but after Jack Christopherson was promoted to Williams mid-season, he replaced the Brit at the struggling AGS team from the Belgian Grand Prix onwards. He would start one race that season, his home race at [[Japanese Grand Prix|Japan]], where he would finish 14th. The AGS team folded at the close of the 1991 season, once again leaving Fushida out of a drive. | |||
===[[1992 Alternate Formula One season|1992]]: [[March]]=== | |||
A new year lead to another stumbling team knocking on Fushida's door part way through the season, this time that team being the [[March]] squad. Fushida would intially drive at one of his home races at the [[Pacific Grand Prix]], failing to pre-qualify. However when full-time driver [[Arie Luyendyk]] left the team for [[Larrousse]], Fushida found himself in the car again at the [[San Marino Grand Prix]]. Fushida would see the season out in the March car, however due to the team's lack of performance they would not manage to qualify for a race until the [[Italian Grand Prix]]. The car was reliable however, so Fushida would finish 3 out of the 4 races he started, his best being a 12th place at Monza. The team would go bankrupt shortly after the [[Australian Grand Prix]], meaning Fushida found himself unemployed for the fourth season running. | |||

Fushida would however set a record that season, by finishing in 7th place a record 7 times that year, a record only equalled by Daniel Melrose in 2019.
1989: Benetton
In 1989, Fushida signed for the Benetton team alongside Belgian Thierry Boutsen. After two failures to qualify, Fushida was dropped by the team and replaced by Roberto Moreno.
1990: Brabham
Fushida made a return to the Formula One paddock at the Mexican Grand Prix with the Motor Racing Developments Ltd team, replacing David Brabham after the Australian had a disagreement with the team bearing his surname. However, this only lasted 4 races, as Fushida was released from the team following disputes with his mechanics, and being accused of dragging the team down, and was replaced with Robert Kagan.

Fushida missed out on a full time seat once again for 1991, but after Jack Christopherson was promoted to Williams mid-season, he replaced the Brit at the struggling AGS team from the Belgian Grand Prix onwards. He would start one race that season, his home race at Japan, where he would finish 14th. The AGS team folded at the close of the 1991 season, once again leaving Fushida out of a drive.
1992: March
A new year lead to another stumbling team knocking on Fushida's door part way through the season, this time that team being the March squad. Fushida would intially drive at one of his home races at the Pacific Grand Prix, failing to pre-qualify. However when full-time driver Arie Luyendyk left the team for Larrousse, Fushida found himself in the car again at the San Marino Grand Prix.
