Legendary F1 track sees race CANCELLED
A Super Formula race at the iconic F1 circuit at Fuji Motor Speedway was canceled due to extreme weather conditions this past weekend. The historic track had previously hosted F1 races back in 1976 and 1977, witnessing legendary moments like James Hunt’s championship win. Despite its rich history in F1, the circuit’s usage has been sporadic over the years, eventually losing its spot on the F1 calendar in 2009 due to the global financial crisis. Owned by Toyota, Fuji Speedway continues to host various racing events and even non-racing activities like cycling events during the Tokyo Olympics. The recent cancellation of the Super Formula race was a result of dense fog creating dangerously low visibility, following a Saturday race that was also called off due to heavy rain, with talks of possibly rescheduling a replacement round for the series at either Fuji or Suzuka.
