Singapore Grand Prix 2026 Schedule, Times & Results
Singapore's October 9-11 weekend is the circuit's first F1 Sprint event, so the competitive action begins on Friday night after only one practice session. Marina Bay's revised 4.927-kilometre lap still packs 19 corners, close walls and tropical humidity into a race that starts at 8:00 PM local time on Sunday.

What to Know About the Singapore Grand Prix 2026
The shorter 19-corner layout is quicker, but concentration remains the real limit
The 2023 revision removed four corners and created a longer flat-out section, yet Marina Bay is still a street circuit where repeated braking, traction and barrier proximity leave almost no recovery time. Turn 1 begins the clearest conventional passing sequence; the later straight gives a following driver a second chance to close before the technical final sector.
- The 62-lap race covers 305.337 kilometres on the current 4.927-kilometre layout.
- A driver who overheats the rear tyres in the slow exits can lose both traction and confidence near the walls.
One practice session turns Friday setup work into a high-stakes decision
FP1 is the only practice before Sprint Qualifying, followed by the Sprint and Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday. Teams therefore have little time to separate a genuine balance problem from a dusty street surface that is gaining grip. Heat, driver fatigue and the chance of a neutralisation keep tyre and pit decisions open deep into Sunday night.
- Use FP1 long runs to judge tyre behaviour; a single qualifying-style lap can hide poor race balance.
- Check the official timetable after any weather delay because every remaining session is competitive.
Match your MRT stop to your ticket zone before entering the circuit park
Marina Bay sits in central Singapore, but road closures and controlled ticket zones change normal walking routes. The event map links gates to nearby MRT stations and shows which zones your ticket can access. Because F1 runs late, plan both the final train connection and any concert or support-race sessions you want to see before arriving.
- Carry light rain protection even when the forecast is mostly dry; tropical showers can develop quickly.
- Friday starts with FP1 at 4:30 PM local time and Sprint Qualifying at 8:30 PM, so there is useful city time before track action.
