Singapore Grand Prix: TV, tricky weather, Sprint, caution, different start times!

For years, the Singapore Night Grand Prix has been a treat for Formula 1 fans; now this popular World Championship round is taking on a new dimension – for the first time, the race in the Asian city-state will be held in sprint format!

The weather conditions are similar to those in Malaysia: temperatures between 33 and 35 degrees; as things stand today, thunderstorms and downpours cannot be ruled out on Saturday and Sunday. That could be quite something.

Please note: practice sessions and the race will take place at times slightly different from the usual schedule.

A stuttering start to the Bahrain Grand Prix: the FIA narrowly avoids a fiasco like the one in Indianapolis in 2005
