The KEIRIN Grand Prix is a race in which nine people, including the winners of the G1 race and the top players in the prize ranking, participate to decide the annual champion of the bicycle race, and this was held at the Shizuoka Bicycle Racetrack.
The race was held on seven laps in a 400-meter-long bank, and with the remaining two laps, the old-fashioned player who gradually came forward accelerated at a stretch with the remaining one lap and pulled away from the following to win the race.
The 30-year-old antique player won his first victory in the Grand Prix first appearance.
Second place was Kota Hirahara and third place was Koji Gunji.
Kosei said, "It was a good feeling. It was a race that I wanted to run again once I ran. I have no end to my desire for aspiration, so I want to do my best next year as well."
Part of the proceeds from the race will be donated to the NHK Welfare Culture Corporation for welfare activities.
