Kouki Sawatari (沢渡 光輝 - "Sawatari Kouki") is a racer who participates in MFG. He drives a #4 Alpine A110 in Years 4 to 5 and is ranked 4th in Year 4.
Biography[]
An exceptional driver who has studied racing in France. A narcissist who loves women, he claims that he has a "Seventeen complex" because his first love was 17 years old, and that now he is only interested in seventeen-year-olds.
He has little passion or ambition for racing, and considers spending his prize money with underage girls to be his purpose in life. However, he showed his high level of ability by taking the provisional first place in the qualifying round with his inefficient A110.
While studying abroad, he had competed countless times against Kanata in the "Euro FE-3" category, but due to lack of funds, he was only able to drive a car with inferior performance and was defeated. Therefore, one of his goals is to defeat Kanata in this year's MFG series and make up for the loss.
MFG Year 4 Performance[]

Round 1[]
Sawatari's girlfriend Sana had her birthday fall on the same day, therefore, Sawatari missed the opening round for Year 4.
Round 2[]
Sawatari officially started his season during the Ashinoko GT. Mainly motivated by her relationship with Sana and the arrival of Kanata in MFG, Sawatari immediately bounced right back onto the scene as he broke the course record. His stay at the top of table was short lived however as he was outqualified by Beckenbauer a few days later.
After starting the race in second, Sawatari made a bold move at the death zone in Lap 2 as he sticked an overtake on the outside of Beckenbauer's Cayman GTS to move up into first place.
Beckenbauer however, managed to regain the lead in the final lap as he evaded a "Skid Feint" from Sawatari at the Ekiden Straight, allowing him to cut a move down the inside and outrun Sawatari through the engine and transmission capabilities of his Cayman GTS. Sawatari ultimately finished the race in second.
Round 3[]
Sawatari qualifies on the 4th day of preliminaries. During his run, he believes Kanata's arrival in MFG is what allowed him to become motivated into racing in MFG. He qualifies in 2nd place.
