Japanese Grand Prix 06 Apr FORMULA 1 LENOVO JAPANESE GRAND PRIX 2025 Suzuka, JapanRace Distance: 53 laps, 307.471 km
As in 2024, Japan is once again early in the F1 calendar year. The famous Suzuka figure-8 started life in 1962 as a test track for the Honda company. Today, it's one of the world's most famous tracks, and a driver favorite. A combination of fast straights, tight hairpins and chicanes, long dynamic sweepers, and elevations changes leads to many overtaking opportunities. In addition to the cross-over bridge/tunnel that allows the figure-8 layout, Suzuka's other famous element is 130R, a 130 meter radius curve taken flat-out in an F1 car.
