Topics for 2027

F1 Sprint Event

The F1 Sprint is a short-distance race held separately from the regular Grand Prix final. On a sprint weekend, the sprint qualifying takes place on Friday, the sprint and the qualifying that determines the final grid are held on Saturday, and the final race is on Sunday. This format offers more race action throughout the weekend, making it a must-see for F1 fans.

All Reserved Seats Valid for Three Days from Friday to Sunday

Friday, which was previously free seating except for some stands and seats, will be changed to reserved seating like Saturday and Sunday.
As a result, all reserved seats will be valid for three days from Friday to Sunday.

Those using Thursday/Friday tickets or West Area tickets will watch from the West Area. Please note that you will not be allowed to enter the reserved seating stands.
Please see below for entry to the viewing areas.

Introducing Ultra Outlet Seats

Outlet seats are those where the view of the course is obstructed or not fully visible due to fences, pillars, various structures, operational vehicles, broadcast equipment, and so on.
In 2027, to allow more guests to experience the excitement of on-site viewing, we will introduce the "Ultra Outlet Seats," utilizing areas that have not been sold before. Although these seats have limited visibility, they offer a viewing experience where you can feel the circuit's atmosphere and the intensity of the race up close.
Since the view varies by seat type, please check the view from the seat before making your decision.
