Suzuka Circuit is a race circuit in Mie Prefecture, 50 kilometers south of Nagoya is one of the two venues, which stage the Formula One Japanese Grand Prix alternately. The other is Fuji Speedway in Shizuoka Prefecture.

Suzuka established itself as one of the drivers' favourite circuits during its initial unbroken spell on the calendar between 1987 and 2006, while its regular end-of-season slot ensured it played host to a number of tense championship showdowns.Suzuka's owner Honda says renovation work at the circuit is nearing completion as it prepares to end its three-year exile from the Formula 1 calendar later this season.

The popular Japanese track has been on the sidelines while the Fuji Speedway has hosted the country's last two grands prix, but will return to F1 action in October with the venue's ageing facilities having been upgraded.
