From next year the Japanese GP will be held at Fuji.

Another world class circuit lost after Spa, mind you Fuji is ok, play Gran Turismo 4 if you dont know it but what's wrong with Suzuka ?

They way I hear it, they're looking to bring back Suzuka in the future, which would replace one of the German events (hopefully the Hockenheim race; that track's redesign is a shell of its former greatness).

It's too bad it probably won't be on the 2007 schedule however, as Suzuka is, along with Spa, my favorite F1 track.

I like the Fuji circuit, But i know i would prefer Suzuka because it is a fantastic track which produces great racing, like what we saw in 2005.

I heard that Suzuka will try to get itself on the calendar for 2007 as a Asian GP or something like that. I hope they do.

I think it's sad to see Suzuki leave but come next year it will be 20 years of the japanese grand prix. So it's sort of fitting to see it go after 20 years.
