F1 2025 Japanese GP start time
It's time to go racing! After a stunning qualifying, we’re gearing up for the highlight of the weekend: the F1 Japanese Grand Prix.
This iconic, high-speed circuit always delivers thrilling action and spectacle. Last year, Max Verstappen won at the Suzuka Circuit, with his former team-mate Sergio Pérez finishing second.
Verstappen is on pole again following a stunning performance but has McLaren duo Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri directly behind him, but who will take the victory this year, and how will home hero Yuki Tsunoda perform on his Red Bull debut? The home hero starts a disappointing 15th.
The F1 Japanese GP starts on Sunday, April 6, at 06:00 BST. About an hour and a half later, we'll know the winner of the third race of the season!
