Good news for Formula 1 fans in Europe: getting up as early as for the Australian Grand Prix will not be necessary. Although the Japanese Grand Prix is also not planned with F1 fans who like to sleep in mind. This coming weekend, the Formula 1 drivers will be in action at Suzuka and these are the times when you should be ready.
The 2023 Japanese Grand Prix was won by Max Verstappen, after his Red Bull failed to win the previous race. Then Carlos Sainz was the best in Singapore. Could history repeat itself and Verstappen win again in Japan, the Grand Prix after Sainz stood on the top step of the podium?
For European viewers, it will again be about getting up early to watch the action live at Suzuka. Qualifying is Saturday morning at 7:00 am UK time, with the Grand Prix an hour earlier, one day later.
