The Japanese F1 GP has been canceled in the past two years due to the new coronavirus. In particular, despite the success of the Olympics in Japan last year, permission was not granted to host the Olympics: “I feel unfair,” he said.
At the press conference held on the morning of 7 October (Friday), Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Seiji Kihara announced the final of the F1 Japanese Grand Prix, which will be held at the Suzuka circuit in Mie prefecture on Sunday 9 October. that Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will attend the ceremony before the start of the competition.
“Prime Minister Kishida plans to visit Mie Prefecture the day after tomorrow, October 9, and Kagoshima Prefecture on October 10, if circumstances permit,” said Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Seiji Kihara.
“In Mie prefecture, we plan to attend the Honda F1 Japan Grand Prix Race 2022 starting ceremony of the FIA F1 World Championship Series.”
At the ceremony before the final race of the 2022 F1 Japanese Grand Prix, it was decided that Nana Mizuki, active as a voice actress, singer and storyteller, will sing the national solo.
In Japan, the Prime Minister has never visited a motorsports scene, which is rare even in the world. Last week, the Tokyo metropolitan government signed a contract with the aim of hosting Formula E in 2024 and it looks like the focus will be on motorsports, which have been rumored to be unpopular in recent years.
