The Japanese Grand Prix, a Formula 1 race featuring Max Verstappen, takes place on Sunday, Sept. 24, 2023 (9/24/23) at the Suzuka Circuit in Suzuka, Japan.
After one loss in a row, runaway Formula One leader Max Verstappen is confident he can get back to his winning ways at this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix.
Despite his worst result since last November, Verstappen increased his championship lead to 151 points over Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez, who finished eighth in Singapore. Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, third in Singapore and the drivers’ standings, has a history of success in Japan. He is a five-time winner of the Japanese GP, most recently in 2018.“I would think that if they’re not 30 seconds ahead like they have done in the past then something’s up,” he said. “But no, I think as Checo said, it was obviously a difficult weekend their last one, but their car should be phenomenal here.
Yuki Tsunoda has had a difficult time in his last two races. He failed to start the Italian Grand Prix because of mechanical issues and then didn’t complete a racing lap in Singapore following contact with Perez. Ricciardo made his return at the Hungarian Grand Prix but broke a bone in his hand at the Dutch GP at Zandvoort. He was in Singapore with the team in a supporting role when New Zealander Liam Lawson stepped in for the third race in a row.
