This year, Honda is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its first Formula 1 win. 

According to the Tokyo-headquartered automotive brand, the said fan festival will connect the public viewing side in Odaiba (Tokyo Bay) with Suzuki Circuit in Mie Prefecture, where the Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix will be held. 

The said link — Honda pointed out — will allow fans at both locations ”to come together in support of the drivers and share the excitement.” 

To recall, Honda also launched a new motor sports website to commemorate the 60th year of its first participation in Formula 1 (1964) and its first victory (1965) in the so-called pinnacle of motor racing. 

On that note, the said website (which can be accessed, here) is focusing on Formula 1-related content this year. 

The dedicated motorsport site features footage from the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix as well as videos and reports from last year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed.
