The final weekend runs on 20–22 November
Japan Race Promotion published additional details on 6 November for Super Formula’s Suzuka finale. The event on 20–22 November comprises Rounds 11 and 12 of the 2026 season and the 25th JAF Suzuka Grand Prix. This is a programme and organisational update, while the championship outcome remains to be established across the two races. It does not report results from an event that is still ahead.
Two days of qualifying and racing
Free practice is scheduled for Friday, 20 November. Saturday, 21 November brings qualifying and the Round 11 race; Sunday, 22 November features qualifying and the Round 12 race. The release confirms that structure, with detailed session times to be followed through the circuit’s programme. Each competitive day can alter the championship through both race results and qualifying points, making the sequence of sessions significant as well as the final race.
Ohta leads into the finale
The official standings consulted put Kakunoshin Ohta on 122 points, followed by Ayumu Iwasa on 89.5 and Igor Omura Fraga on 77. The gap between the first two is an APEX calculation of 32.5 points. The published scoring system awards 20 for a victory and up to three in qualifying.
| Pos. | Driver | Points |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kakunoshin Ohta | 122 |
| 2 | Ayumu Iwasa | 89.5 |
| 3 | Igor Omura Fraga | 77 |
A ceremony after the last race
JRP announces a season-ending ceremony featuring all drivers and president Masahiko Kondo on a stage on the main straight. It is expected around 16:00 in Japan on 22 November, equivalent to 09:00 in Romania. The time remains approximate because the event follows the race. APEX analysis: a double-round format calls for checking the points after each session; the pre-weekend table supplies the starting reference rather than the verdict on the season.
