Fuji International Speedway

Designed by John Hugenholtz, the Zandvoort owner, and built in 1963, primarily as a test track for Honda, Suzuka has hosted the Japanese F1 GP since 1987 and is a very popular venue. The Japanese crowds are fanatical, particularly in the late 80¡äs and early 90¡äs when McLaren-Honda, Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost were at their peak. Always near the end of the F1 Championship calendar, it has been the scene of many memorable moments in recent racing history to decide the Championship. The facilities and organisation are first-class.

The track is a very technical one to drive and consists of a good variety of corners, then the return section is a series of sweeping, fast curves, where drivers experience high G-forces. Its unique feature is the cross-over which means that unusually, there is an almost equal number of left- and right-hand turns.

At nearly 6 km in length, it is one of the longest tracks on the international calendar. The annual international GT/Sportscar 1000 km race is usually held in mid-summer and drivers often have trouble coping with the immense heat.

The first formula one race in Japan was held in 1976 at the Fuji Speedway in Shizuoka Prefecture. Since 1987, the Japan Grand Prix has been staged annually at the Suzuka Circuit in Suzuka City, Mie Prefecture, about one train hour south of Nagoya.

In 2006, the Japan Grand Prix was held in Suzuka on the weekend of October 6-8, with the main race taking place on October 8, 2006.

From 2008, however, the Japan Grand Prix will be moved from Suzuka back to the Fuji Speedway circuit. Suzuka will not continue to host a formula one race in 2009. In the mid 1990s, Japan used to host two races per year (Japan Grand Prix and Pacific Grand Prix).
