"What is the recommended mode of transportation?"

Suzuka's F1 Fan san

I live in Suzuka City, so I can be picked up by car, but the absolute best option is definitely by bicycle!
The main reason is that you won't get caught in traffic jams, and the nearby roads have dedicated bike lanes, allowing for incredible overtaking!
Another thing is moving between the gates. For example, when you want to go to Spoon, you can leave the gate and ride your bike to the nearest gate without having to go around the course!
For those living in the city and planning to watch the event, I absolutely recommend riding a bicycle if it's not an unreasonable distance from home. For those coming from afar, if you have space in your car, bringing a bicycle would be the best option!

I have experienced watching F1 at SUZUKA CIRCUIT twice (in 2023 and 2024), and for both occasions, I reserved a round-trip direct bus (Circuit EXPRESS) from Nagoya Station to SUZUKA CIRCUIT. I went once on a Friday by train (Kintetsu) and bus (shuttle bus from Shiroko to the circuit).
There was traffic on the way, but I was able to move easily.

It's a motorcycle.
The parking fee is around 1,000yen for three days, so the cost is good, and above all, it feels like a variety of motorcycle exhibitions, which is fun.

Metal Slime san

If parking is secured, a car is good.
It's convenient to travel by car to enjoy the city of Suzuka.

If you are staying at a hotel near Nagoya Station, we recommend taking the train!

During race week, many people stay in Nagoya, so trains are predominantly used. Although it's a detour, using the train to Tsu and then taking a tour bus to the circuit was a comfortable option with less time spent on the bus.
If you have the energy, why not take a walk to Hirata Town? There is an Aeon Mall nearby, and F1-related events are sometimes held there.

Takayuki JM san

I mainly took the bus from the train. I thought it was amazing that there were buses constantly running from Shirako Station, so I didn't have to wait long to board.

Sako san

We will secure a parking lot close to the gate nearest to the viewing seats for private cars. If you are going for the first time, a direct bus from Nagoya might be a good option to avoid getting lost.

Transportation by car.
It's unfortunate that the number of direct-operated parking lots has decreased in recent years, as car camping is the main focus.

KAPPA64 san

The strongest is the bicycle, right?

Long-time Lewis fan san

After all, it's the private car. When I participated in the tour, it was convenient because I could get a shuttle bus from the accommodation, but there were time constraints, and I couldn't participate in events like the pre-festival.
While there is a competition for parking tickets when using a private car, you can fully enjoy Suzuka Week without time constraints!

Unamu san

I always go from the hotel in Nagoya to the SUZUKA CIRCUIT.
Thursday: Buying a lot of goods, etc.
Friday to Sunday: Kintetsu Limited Express → Bus
In recent years, it feels like the organization for waiting for buses has been improving more and more. Thank you!
It can be quite difficult to match the time of the express train on the way back, but there are shops in front of the station, so you can adjust your time. If you have a reserved seat, you can definitely sit comfortably!

Shin-chan san

It's a car. That's because I'm not very good with other means of transportation.

Walking or driving from Ino Station to SUZUKA CIRCUIT

Bread Mr.

I have been using the direct bus from Nagoya Station (Circuit EXPRESS) all along. It's great that I don't have to wait for a shuttle bus or walk to the station, and my seat is always guaranteed. It can be tough with road congestion and staying in the same position for a long time, but if you're based in Nagoya Station, I recommend it.

Toritaro Saitani san

In the past, I would take the Kintetsu train to Shiroko early in the morning when it was still dark, and then walk from Shiroko to the circuit. I savored the happiness of walking to SUZUKA CIRCUIT. I also walked back to Shiroko.
Walking is good for mental health, but be careful not to get hit by the many cars in traffic.

Keisuke san

I go by bicycle

Seninha san

Camping in the camping area by private car is recommended.

1717 san

This time, I went to watch the race by car!
If you can purchase a parking ticket for the private parking lot and accommodations, we recommend it because you can go to the circuit at your own timing!

Masaaki san

I participate every time by car. However, obtaining a parking ticket is difficult.

I think the shuttle bus from Kintetsu Shirako Station is good until the morning of the qualifying and the final. When I went to watch F1, the shuttle bus stop was located towards the shopping district, and there were several tourist bus-type buses waiting.
The roads will be congested on the way back from the race, so if you can walk, it might take about an hour, but I think it would be fine to walk to Shiroko Station.

Shuman san

I have taken a bus to the SUZUKA CIRCUIT on the qualifying day of the 2018 Japanese GP, but other than that, my parents have driven me to a nearby drugstore parking lot almost every time. The roads leading to the circuit are always congested, and the parking lots of other stores charge exorbitant prices...
