The schedule for the Japanese GP was tweaked earlier this earlier to avoid logistical issues, with FP2 now taking place on Saturday morning instead of Friday, and FP4 scrapped altogether.
Fabio Quartararo goes into the race with a reduced 10-point lead in the standings following his second retirement of the season at Aragon last weekend.
This means in-form Francesco Bagnaia has a real shot at the title with five rounds still to go, while Aleix Espargaro is a further seven points in third and also in the hunt.
