The Start of the Japanese GP is Delayed:<\/h2>\n
\n

The FIA has announced that the start of the formation lap for the Japanese Grand Prix has been delayed by 10 minutes. This delay comes as a result of damage to the circuit caused by an accident during the Porsche Cup, a pre-season racing event held over the weekend. Consequently, the race is now set to begin at 2:10 p.m. local time.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
