Singapore Grand Prix weekend itinerary

A Thursday-to-Monday plan built around Singapore's new Sprint format, night sessions and late crowd exits.

01

Thursday: arrive and orient

Check in, submit any required entry documentation before travel, walk the public side of the venue and map the station, gate and zone on the official Circuit Park plan.

02

Friday and Saturday: every session matters

Friday's only practice begins at 16:30 and Sprint Qualifying at 20:30. Saturday has competitive action at 17:00 and 21:00, leaving little room for transport mistakes.

03

Sunday and Monday: race then buffer

Keep Sunday daytime light, enter well before the 20:00 race and expect a late, crowded exit. Monday is the safer flight or sightseeing buffer than a tight post-race airport run.
