Washed out at Suzuka for Rounds 12 and 13

6 Sep

Rounds 12 and 13 of the 2011 Japanese Formula 3 championship was a complete washout and both races over the weekend were cancelled.

Richard Bradley of Team TOM’S Petronas was doing very well, coming in P2 in the first practice session on Friday, despite being on old tyres.


The weather steadily worsened with an impending typhoon and Saturday’s qualifying and race were cancelled first.

Keeping fingers crossed for Sunday’s race, it was eventually cancelled along with timed qualifying as the weather was simply too horrible for any driving.

It was frustrating as Richard was very fast in practice and it would have been exciting to see how the weekend would have turned out!

The next round will be held the same weekend as the Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix, what a shame Richard would have to miss F1 right here in Singapore where he lives…
