The TV schedule and times of the Japanese F1 Grand Prix
Two weeks after Ferrari's double win in Melbourne, F1 is back, for a mythical track, that of Suzuka in Japan. Motors Inside gives you the schedule for this unmissable weekend.
Usually, Formula 1 makes a stop in the Land of the Rising Sun at the end of the season, in the fall. This time, the drivers are returning to Japan for the 4th Grand Prix of the year.
The unique layout of Suzuka has often been the litmus test for the world championship title. From the duel between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in 1989 to Max Verstappen’s title in 2022, the Japanese track has often been spectacular for followers.
The hierarchy should be different from the one in the last GPs as the circuit demands a performant chassis, especially in the famous Esses corners. Just like in Australia two weeks ago, you’ll have to get up early to follow the sessions throughout the weekend. The free practices will mainly take place at night, and the qualifying and the race will prevent Europeans from having a lie-in!
