This weekend’s Grand Prix will take place on Sunday at Suzuka Circuit, Japan
It may surprise many Formula One fans to learn that the next race after Australia will be in Japan, as the Suzuka circuit normally appears much later on the F1 calendar.
This year’s race was moved to early April as part of F1’s bid to be more sustainable and net-zero carbon emissions by 2030.
