The 16th round of the 2023 Formula One season takes place this weekend at the Marina Bay Street Circuit in Singapore.
Sergio Perez of Red Bull was victorious here last year, with the Ferrari duo of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr finishing second and third respectively.
Coming into the weekend, Max Verstappen leads the Drivers’ Championship by 145 points from teammate Sergio Perez, with Fernando Alonso third, a further 49 points behind.
Red Bull Racing leads the Constructors’ Championship, leading Mercedes by 310 points and Ferrari by a further 45 points.
Red Bull Racing could secure their sixth World Constructors’ Championship, the second in a row, as long as they claims a one-two result and the bonus for fastest lap (44 points), with Mercedes scoring one point or fewer.
If Red Bull Racing achieve a one-two without the fastest lap (43 points), with Mercedes failing to score, their advantage would be the same as the number of the obtainable points remaining in the season (353), but Mercedes would not be able to win on a tie breaker due to Red Bull Racing scoring more wins than Mercedes.
All five sessions – practices, qualifying, and the race – will be shown live on Sky Sports F1, while highlights of quali and the race will air on Channel 4.
Qualifying starts at 2.00pm, while the race gets underway at 1.00pm.
