Throughout the 13 Singapore Grands Prix held since back in 2008, only five drivers have managed to secure victories. Sebastian Vettel holds the record for the most wins, achieving five triumphs in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, and 2019. Lewis Hamilton follows closely with four victories in 2009, 2014, 2017, and 2018. Fernando Alonso has clinched two wins in 2008 and 2010, while Nico Rosberg and Sergio Perez each have one victory, in 2016 and 2022, respectively.

The presence of the Safety Car has been a regular occurrence in every Singapore Grand Prix until now. The frequency of Safety Car periods often results in the race approaching the two-hour time limit, with five races extending beyond that duration.

A moment of consideration should be given to the drivers who endure grueling sauna-like conditions inside the cockpit during the Singapore Grand Prix. They can lose up to 3kg of fluid throughout the race due to the physically demanding nature of the circuit. With its bumpy surface and 21 turns, the Marina Bay circuit ranks among the most physically challenging races on the calendar.

To illuminate the 5.075km Marina Bay circuit during the night race, approximately 1600 custom-made floodlights are strategically placed. These lights are four times brighter than those found in regular sports stadiums and are specially designed to minimize glare and surface reflection while meeting F1’s TV broadcasting standards.

Interestingly, no driver has experienced more than three DNFs at the Marina Bay Circuit, although several have retired here three times, including Lewis Hamilton and former Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso.

Notably, the 2017 Singapore Grand Prix was the first night race to take place in wet conditions, adding to its significance. Unfortunately, Scuderia Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Räikkönen had Red Bull’s Max Verstappen in the middle of them after the race start. The Dutchman’s tyres touched with the Finn’s as a result sending Kimi Raikkonen out of control and he hit left sidepod of his Maranello teammate Sebastian Vettel’s car, causing significant damage to both, and then also hit Max Verstappen’s car again going into turn 1. Both Ferrari drivers had to retire.

Similarly, the race in 2022 encountered wet conditions, prompting a delay of over an hour at the start due to heavy rain and thunderstorms.

Red Bull stands out as the team with the most podium finishes in Singapore. They have achieved top three results 14 times in total and have secured at least one top three finish in every Singapore Grand Prix since 2010.
