Overview

• The Marina Bay pit lane was widened by one metre, allowing the limit to move from 60kph to 80kph for this weekend’s race.
• Pit stops previously cost drivers around 25 seconds at the 60kph limit, and the higher cap is expected to cut that time loss.
• Teams may explore multi-stop strategies, though limited overtaking at Marina Bay could still make one-stop plans attractive.
• The FIA confirmed repairs to the pit-lane surface and organisers resurfaced multiple track sections, including areas between turns two and three, six and seven, through turn nine, and from turns 14 to 19.
• This is the second 60-to-80kph increase of 2025 after Zandvoort, with Pirelli nominating the C3, C4 and C5 compounds for Singapore.
