Overview

  • Free practice opens today at the remodeled Marina Bay Street Circuit, a 19‑corner, 4.940 km night venue renowned for extreme heat, humidity and punishing walls.
  • Oscar Piastri tops the standings on 324 points ahead of Lando Norris on 299, with Max Verstappen on 255 after his 67th career win and fourth of the season in Baku.
  • McLaren targets a reset after Piastri’s first‑lap retirement and Norris’s seventh place in Azerbaijan kept the constructors’ title unsealed.
  • Carlos Sainz arrives buoyed by his first Williams podium and a Driver of the Day vote in Baku, while Fernando Alonso seeks a rebound after a five‑second start penalty left him point‑less.
  • All sessions are available live on DAZN in markets where it holds Formula 1 rights, and the current Singapore lap record is 1:34.486 set by Daniel Ricciardo in 2024.
