Pacific Grand Prix

The Pacific Grand Prix was a round of the Formula One World Championship twice in the mid-1990s. Both races were held at the Tanaka International Aida circuit, a slow, twisty 2.3-mile track deep in the countryside in Aida (near Kobe), Japan. Following the 1995 Kobe earthquake, the Pacific Grand Prix was moved from early in the calendar to the end. The inaugural race in 1994 saw Michael Schumacher take an easy victory after Ayrton Senna was involved in a first corner accident with Mika Hkkinen and Nicola Larini. The most recent Pacific Grand Prix in 1995 was a more eventful affair, with some close racing throughout the field. The race culminated in a fine tactical victory for Michael Schumacher, securing his second World Championship, and making him the youngest ever double World Champion.
