Friday’s first practice session at the Singapore Grand Prix gave teams and drivers an early look at their setups and performance on the Marina Bay Street Circuit. As usual, FP1 allowed drivers to familiarize themselves with the track conditions, test tire strategies, and gather crucial data for the rest of the weekend. While lap times offer an initial indication of pace, teams typically focus on long runs and car balance rather than outright speed at this stage.
Fernando Alonso led the way in the opening practice session for this weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. The two-time world champion clocked a 1:31.116 on the soft tires, finishing ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.
