F1 Race Today: Japanese Grand Prix 2023 start times, schedule and TV

It was normal service resumed for Max Verstappen at the Japanese Grand Prix after a scintillating qualifying display saw him place his Red Bull on pole.

The world champion dominated the timesheets from start to finish, comfortably brushing aside Oscar Piastri despite the McLaren rookie rounding off the front row.

Piastri's team-mate, Lando Norris, will line up third, while Charles Leclerc, Sergio Perez and the in-form Carlos Sainz made up the rest of the top six spots.

Despite the likely procession at the front, this is still set to be a race to remember. It is important to bear in mind, however, that the action gets underway very early in the morning for many viewers - so be sure to set your alarms again if need be!
