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, The most special part of the track is the "figure eight" layout, with the 1.2 km back straight passing over the front section by means of an overpass. It's one of only two FIA Grade 1 licensed tracks to have a "figure eight" layout, the other one being the Fiorano Circuit.

The circuit has been modified at least eight times. In 1983 a chicane was inserted at the last curve to slow the cars into the pit straight, the original circuit was an incredibly fast track with only one slow corner, without the Casio chicane some cars would go through the final long right-hand corner flat out and then would go past the pits at more than 200 mph. In 1984 the first part of Spoon was made slightly slower and the corner was brought closer to the track to expand the run-off area there, and in 1985 the first corner was made slightly slower. In 2014 Jules Bianchi suffered a fatal crash after colliding with a recovery vehicle.

Its traditional role as one of the last Grands Prix of the season means numerous world championships have been decided at the track. Four years consecutively in its early history the circuit saw the world championship decided. These include the 1988 championship, which went to Ayrton Senna, the controversial 1989 championship, which went to Alain Prost, and the 1990 and 1991 world championships, which both went to Senna. Suzuka was dropped from the Formula One calendar for the 2007 and 2008 seasons in favour of the Toyota-owned Fuji Speedway, after the latter underwent a transformation and redesign by circuit designer Hermann Tilke.
