The Suzuka International Racing Course (or Suzuka Circuit) is a motorsport race track located in Ino, Suzuka City, Mie Prefecture, Japan and operated by Mobilityland Corporation, a subsidiary of Honda Motor Co, Ltd. It has a capacity of 155,000.

Soichiro Honda decided to develop a new permanent circuit in Mie prefecture in the late 1950s. Designed as a Honda test track in 1962 by Dutchman John "Hans" Hugenholtz, Suzuka is one of few circuits in the world to have a "figure eight" layout, with the 1.2 km back straight passing over the front section by means of an overpass. The Suzuka Circuit currently hosts the Japanese Grand Prix™.

In Real Racing 3, the player can race on its three different variants: East Circuit, West Circuit and Grand Prix Circuit in various events. It was one of the courses included when Real Racing 3 was first released.
