What’s Hot at the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix – The Night Race Returns in Style

The 2025 Singapore Grand Prix kicks off October 3rd and runs through October 5th at the iconic Marina Bay Street Circuit. This race is the crown jewel of night racing, lighting up the city with all the drama, speed, and chaos that only a street circuit can deliver. The Marina Bay track stretches just under 5 kilometers with 62 laps scheduled—a grueling test of focus, skill, and stamina under the glow of floodlights.

Practice sessions fire off on Friday, October 3rd, with two 60-minute runs giving teams their first crack at the bumpy, humid street surface. Saturday holds the final 60-minute practice and the all-important qualifying session, setting the grid for Sunday’s showdown. The grand prix race fires up Sunday evening at 8:00 PM local time and promises high stakes with championship points on the line.

Beyond the engine roar, the Singapore GP is a feast of entertainment. Expect star-studded concerts, fireworks exploding over the city skyline, and a full-on festival vibe that stretches beyond the track. Fans can soak in Singapore’s famed nightlife, sample world-class street food, or grab breathtaking views from the Singapore Flyer giant wheel.
