If there are no more other references to any of these two objects (only
circular), both of them get garbage collected.
Try this:
class Test1 {
  Test1 ref;
  protected void finalize() throws java.lang.Throwable{
    System.out.println("finalize called for: "+this+"->"+ref);
    super.finalize();
  }
}
class Test2 {
  static public void main(String[] args) {
    Test1 t1 = new Test1();
    t1.ref = new Test1();
    t1.ref.ref = t1;
    t1 = null;
    System.gc();
  }
}
