It's FIA Grade 2, so I believe so (given Le Mans is Grade 2 also). The problem with Autopolis is it's in quite the most remote location possible in Japan. Suzuka and/or Twin Ring Motegi would probably be the best bets in Japan... Sugo and Okayama are pretty nice but a bit too small.
Perhaps Suzuka is an idea for the near future.
Apparently, November-January are the driest months for Shanghai so let's hope for a sunny race on November 1!
