Photo shooting area

Pre-determined points are available for shooting, and admission and shooting are allowed in that area. B2 seat top row, ASURA S-curve exclusive area, D-5 seat top row, D-1 seat temporary stand, E seat exclusive area, hairpin exclusive area (2 locations), and spoon exclusive area. There are three types of area tickets, each with different shooting areas, etc.

Cloak Availability

When trying to take race photos in earnest, the amount of equipment related to cameras and other items increases. While it is possible to move to the admission area during the session and take photos, it often becomes inconvenient due to the influence of luggage. Therefore, a cloak is installed in the GP Square. If you want to leave your luggage there and take photos with the necessary equipment, you need to purchase a photographer area ticket and a cloak at the same time.

Photographer Area Map
①、②

Admission available for all photographers
Possible to capture machines jumping into the first corner from the main straight. Especially at the start, you can capture the scene of the machines coming to the first corner while fiercely competing for positions. However, since the distance between the course and the shooting point is far, it is highly likely that you will not be able to shoot well without a large telephoto lens. There is also a merit in that you can access directly to the stand from the 1st corner gate, which is the closest from GP Square. Only those who have purchased tickets classified as "B2・Hairpin Admission Available" can enter this B2. From 2019, "B2-3" and "B2-1・2" have become separate areas with price differences.
※The Hairpin Grandstand Front Area requires a "Hairpin Plus" ticket.

GP Square admission area except for B2 camera area
Since the introduction of camera area tickets, the hairpin shooting area has been very popular. The distance between the course and the shooting point is relatively close, and since it is a corner where the speed of the car also decreases, even those who do not have a telephoto lens can take pictures without worry. Although it is far from GP Square, you can spend a comfortable day by using the nearby 130R Oasis as a rest base. However, those with "C, D, E, M admission" tickets cannot take pictures during the period. However, it is possible to take pictures only during Friday free practice. From 2017, a "Hairpin Plus" ticket is required for admission to the hairpin I seat permanent front area. As it is a popular area, the "Hairpin Plus" ticket is also expected to sell out.

B2・Hairpin excluded, photographer area entry allowed
A popular shooting spot for amateur photographers even in domestic races. In particular, the reverse bank allows for photos with the Ise Bay and Suzuka City in the background if the weather is good. Also, the distance is not too far, so it is possible to take photos even without a large telephoto lens. However, due to the high speed of passing through the corners in F1, it may be difficult to focus at first and you may struggle.
There is a reverse bank oasis nearby, which can be used during breaks between sessions. In addition, during the afternoon when qualifying and finals are held, the lighting will be in the right direction, allowing for photography without having to worry about the position of the sun.

Spoon Curve, it is possible to take photos in the dedicated shooting area next to the M area. It may be difficult to take photos without a large telephoto lens due to the distance from the course. You can take photos of the machine in the opposite direction of the S-curve and reverse bank, so it will be a different atmosphere photo. It takes time and considerable effort to move from GP Square to Spoon with camera equipment, but if you can use Spoon Gate, you can access it immediately.

The 130R to chicane area has been set up since 2017. This is a point where you can take pictures of the braking just before the chicane from up close.
