Autopolis (オートポリス)

Circuit · Japan, Ōita

D1GP in the Kyushu mountains, with real gradient.

The only full-size circuit on the D1 Grand Prix calendar, Tsukuba is two kilometres, Ebisu's longest layout barely more, and the rest of the 2026 season runs on an exhibition centre and a car park. Rounds seven and eight are scheduled here for late October.

The mountain site gives it what most drift venues lack: 52 metres of elevation change, climbs at 7.2% and descents at 10%. A car that is settled on flat asphalt is not settled here.
