The 2022 Japanese Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held on 9 October 2022 at the Suzuka International Racing Course in Suzuka. Max Verstappen won the race finishing first, in front of Sergio Pérez and Charles Leclerc.
Despite only 28 of the scheduled 53 laps being completed, full points were awarded due to a loophole in the regulations regarding how points should be allocated, with the rules stating that reduced points should only be awarded in shortened races that end under red flag conditions. As this race ended under green flag conditions, this system was not applied. The wording of the sporting regulations was subsequently amended for 2023, so races that do not reach the 75 percent distance are awarded shortened race points regardless of whether a race finishes under red or green flag conditions.
Due to the awarding of full points, Max Verstappen was able to secure his second championship title overall and his second consecutive one after building an unassailable 113-points-margin to teammate Sergio Pérez with four rounds to spare.
