Are you for or against the GP being held at Speedway?   Do you think it should be held at a different circuit?   There are several circuits - I can find Autopolis (which was used for Sports Car races but went bankrupt), Fuji, Suzuka and Ti Aida.   Are there any more?   where do you think it should be held?\n\nI found the following articles on the below website:\n\nFORMULA ONE News Friday, 24th March 2006  Official: Fuji new home for Japanese GP.\n \n The Japanese Grand Prix will move to the Fuji International Speedway next year.\n\nOfficial confirmation came on Friday, after months of rumours, which intensified at the season opening Bahrain Grand Prix earlier this month. The circuit, which is owned by Toyota, put out an announcement that they have reached an agreement with Bernie Ecclestone's Formula One Administration Limited, which will see it become the venue for the Japanese GP from 2007.\n\n"We, at FOA, have the pleasure that Fuji Speedway, as the brand new venue nestled at the foot of the most majestic Mt. Fuji, will be the new home of Japanese F1 Grand Prix," said Ecclectone. "We also have a good expectation that the F1 event there would be the opening of new era of Formula One history."\n\n **********************\n  \nFuji Speedway to stage F1 Japanese Grand Prix\nFri 24 Mar, 10:17 AM\n\nTOKYO (AFP) - Toyota Motor said it had received the green light to stage the Formula One Japanese Grand Prix from next year at its renovated Fuji Speedway, in a boost in its showdown with rival automaker Honda.\n\nIt was a long-awaited decision for Toyota since its Fuji International Speedway completed the upgrade of the race course on the foot of Mount Fuji a year ago.\n\nFormula One Administration Limited chairman Bernie Ecclestone said that Fuji Speedway, "the brand new venue nestled at the foot of the most majestic Mount Fuji, will be the new home of Japanese F1 Grand Prix," according to Toyota.\n\n"We also have a good expectation that the F1 event there would be the opening of new era of Formula One history," he was quoted as saying in a Toyota statement.\n\nToyota enlarged the paddock of the track to meet F1 specifications, winning approval of a "Grade One" licence by the International Automobile Federation in January last year.\n\nToyota, which holds 93.4 percent shares of Fuji International Speedway Co. Ltd., and Honda intensified their motor sports rivalry in 2002 when Toyota made its F1 debut as a full works team.\n\nHonda has its own circuits at Suzuka, 300 kilometres (185 miles) southwest of Tokyo, which has the rights to stage the Japanese Grand Prix until this year, and at Twin Ring Motegi, 100 kilometres (62 miles) north of Tokyo.\n\nIt remains possible that Japan will stage two Grand Prix events next year, with one going to each automaker. No date was immediately announced for the Grand Prix at Fuji Speedway.\n\nHonda, which quit F1 racing in 1992 after eight successful years as an engine supplier, made a comeback in 2000 with an engine for the British American Racing outfit.\n\nHonda started the championship this season as a full constructor, while former F1 driver Aguri Suzuki joined the tour in a new all-Japanese team with a Honda engine.\n\nThe Fuji Speedway opened in 1965 and staged two F1 races in 1976 and 1977.\n\nThe latter year saw a spectator and steward killed when a Ferrari driven by Gilles Villeneuve ploughed into the crowd following a shunt from Sweden's Ronnie Peterson in a Tyrrel.\n\n **********************\nthe accident was very bad and Fuji Speedway lost the GP so I presume a lot of safety work has gone on!

At the moment it looks like a straight out fight between Fernando and Kimi. Honda, Ferrari and Williams look to be fast, but not fast enough to challenge for the drivers title, fast enough to be pests in the way though.

Formula 1 (Michael Schumacher etc.)\n\nEach Grand Prix is done over a race weekend, this year you can use however many sets of tyres you like, but one engine has to last you two weekends.  Penaltys are given for any blown engines etc.\n\nFriday is Practise\nSaturday is Qualifying\nSunday is the Race\n\nIn practise the cars can do as many laps as they like, with whatever fuel or tyres they like to get used to the track etc.\n\nQualifying rules seem to change each year, basically there is a time window on the Saturday for the cars to go out and put in the fastest lap they can.  The faster the lap the higher up the grid they go, ideally getting first place(Pole Position). \n\nOn the Sunday, after the warm-up lap (to get tyres and engines up to temperature) the race starts after all the red lights have lit up and gone out (there is no flag to start the race).  Cars can pit whenever they like, for tyres, fuel etc. The race is over when the total number of laps are completed by the lead car, this when the chequered flag is waved.\n\nRed flags on the track means stop the race (major accident)\nYellow flags mean caution / slow down (minor accident)\nBlack flags mean disqualification\nBlue flags mean a car that is lapping you needs to overtake.\n\nThis is basically it, but someone else can correct or add to this.

Yep. I agree it has to be the technical side of it. But for a newbie? It would be that F1 is the pinnacle of motor sport and a true World Championship (literally) with races on specifically designed tracks (not ovals) from China to Monaco to Germany.

I know about USA. Usually there is a channel called Speed TV which comes as US top-120 channels, it airs all the grand-prix, you can go to www.speedtv.com. If it is not on that channel then you should look out on CBS channel on the day of the race.

LKY rejected a proposal for it years ago. Now he seems to regret it.\n\nBut there is a go-kart circuit in Timah Jurong near the former Tang Dynasty Village.\n\nThe nearest F1 circuits to Singapore are (in order): Sepang (Malaysia), Shanghai (China) and Australia (Melbourne)
