Suzuka is the only figure-of-eight on the calendar and the drivers' benchmark: the uphill Esses, the blind Dunlop curve, the double-apex Degner, the Spoon and the flat-out 130R all in one 5.8 km lap. Built in 1962 as a Honda test track, it has barely changed in character in six decades.

Because the track crosses over itself, Suzuka has viewing spots that show you two different parts of the lap at once. The Esses stands (the climb out of Turn 1) are the classic choice for watching car balance; the hairpin gives you slow-speed traction and overtaking; the Spoon and 130R areas are for the connoisseur. Grandstand elevation varies a lot here, so the 3D view is worth checking — some rows see three corners, some see one.
