uzuka, the host of Sunday’s Japanese Grand Prix that has long been considered one of Formula One’s greatest circuits, beloved of drivers and fans alike, simply has it all. A storied history of high drama and thrilling racing on a majestic challenge that sweeps and undulates with the landscape of the Aichi prefecture where it is built. It is the perfect combination of risk and reward, where the bold and exacting shine but which has retained its fearsome reputation of being unforgiving of error.
This season has felt like something of a rebirth for the revered figure-of-eight track which held its first Japanese GP in 1987, as it is the first time it has been held so early in the campaign.
Fortunately F1 learned lessons from the tragedy and Sunday’s race promises much because Suzuka is a circuit defined by its glorious corners. The Esses, a sweeping uphill sequence of four undulating bends with a slight banking that can make or break a lap, the Degners, the Hairpin, Spoon and the fearsome 130R, a left-hander taken with full commitment to test a car like perhaps no other, although turn one at Sebring is similarly gripping.
