It's time for the first free practice session of the Japanese Grand Prix weekend!
The Suzuka Circuit hosts the third round of the season, with McLaren's Lando Norris entering the event in the championship lead.
Red Bull has enjoyed great success at the track in recent years with Max Verstappen winning each of the last three grands prix.
However, much focus on this session will be on his new team-mate Yuki Tsunoda who gets his Red Bull debut underway in front of his home crowd.
Who will get their weekends off to a strong start and who will have some catching up to do after the chequered flag?
Below you can follow the session with our featured live blog - which also features live timing!
