Bridgestone has been at the fore-front of innovation and development in motorsport since making its racing debut in 1963, at the first Japanese Grand Prix in Suzuka. Motorsport is now a crucial arena for expressing Bridgestone's corporate identity on a global level.

But Bridgestone is not only committed to the Motorsport industry on a global basis but has always believed in supporting all levels of the Motorsport hierarchy from grass-root motorsport on a local level through to Formula 1 globally.
