[37], As a consequence of the race, Webber increased his lead in the World Drivers' Championship. [11], Singapore was a critical race in the championship as all five drivers had a chance to take the lead with a victory. It reminded him of the 2000 Japanese Grand Prix where Schumacher won that year's world championship from his main rival Mika Häkkinen. This demoted him from eighth to tenth and promoted Hülkenberg from ninth to eighth and Massa from tenth to ninth. [19] Lewis Hamilton claimed his fifth pole of the season for McLaren and his second in Singapore. He also said that he did not feel comfortable throughout the weekend and that he was staying composed through certain sections of the race. [15] The event went on to achieve a full sell-out for all of its tickets. On 15 April 2014, it was announced that Singapore Airlines would sponsor the Singapore Grand Prix, starting from that year.[21]. Horner had also admitted that Webber had been lucky with his tyre lasting for a long distance. The race was neutralised by the deployment of the safety car after Kamui Kobayashi and Bruno Senna crashed on lap 31. Before the first modern race took place, Malaysian Sports Minister Azalina Othman Said said that the proximity of the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia, which hosts the Malaysian Grand Prix and is about 300 kilometres from Singapore, would create unhealthy competition. The eleventh row of the grid was filled by Jarno Trulli and Klien. [12] He also acknowledged that his car was not the fastest in the field and felt he needed five podiums in the season's five remaining races.

Please note that tickets are not yet on sale for the 2021 Australian Grand Prix. [38] With newer tyres which provided more grip, Vettel recorded faster lap times than Alonso to close the time gap as the two came across slower cars. [12], There were two driver changes heading into the Grand Prix. [4][38] Kobayashi damaged his Sauber, losing control of his rear-end, and crashed at the exit of turn 18 after his front wing was knocked off entering the corner. A pink background indicates an event which was not part of the Formula One World Championship. This guide will be updated when tickets go on sale. Alonso added that Ferrari would give "100 per cent" in the season's four remaining races and said the battle remained "very tight" despite scoring the most points out of all the drivers in the previous five races. The fastest lap in each of the three sessions is denoted in bold. Several journalists noticed a seemingly healthy Yamamoto in the paddock, suggesting that he had been dropped for sponsorship reasons instead. [34] Petrov's crash meant he took no further part in qualifying. Kovalainen's car suffered a cracked fuel tank pressure release valve and he limped back to the pit lane, the rear of his Lotus catching fire during the final few turns. The Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2020 has been cancelled due to continuing nationwide restrictions on construction and business activities brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Vettel's second-place finish moved him to fourth place, ahead of Button. [17] On track, Felipe Massa was the first man to sit on the Singapore pole in his Ferrari, and dominated the race until he was released early at a pit stop, breaking his fuel rig and dropping him to last place. The Singapore Sling chicane was adjusted to allow for a more gradual curve to exist which enabled a safer exit for drivers. Kovalainen stopped on the main straight and vacated his car to extinguish the fire himself after members of the Williams team handed him a fire extinguisher. [4] It was later confirmed that his retirement was the result of an issue with his car's hydraulic system. Sebastian Vettel, an eight-time winner in 2011 before Marina Bay, led the drivers' championship by over 100 points. [22] Williams's design debuted for the first time and was designed to make the tyre act like a diffuser which took air in to improve its efficiency. F1's new-generation turbo-charged, hybrid-powered cars brought a new look to the track, ending the reign of the 2.4-litre power unit, but a controversial ban on radio communications dominated pre-race proceedings. [50], Sutil was given a 20-second time penalty by the stewards as he was deemed to gain an advantage by taking the outside line at turn seven on the first lap. Button got an early advantage over teammate Hamilton, but Hamilton fought him to retain third place. The safety car pulled into the pit lane at the end of lap 35 and the race resumed with Alonso leading. [4] By lap 20, Alonso was leading Vettel by 3.2 seconds; he, in turn, was a further 11 seconds in front of Hamilton. [56] The Malaysian Deputy Youth and Sports Minister Liow Tiong Lai stated that the Malaysian Government is unconcerned about possible competition from Singapore. [12] After crashing out of the first lap of the Italian Grand Prix, Hamilton said he would push hard to stay in championship contention: "I'll take each race as it comes, but I'll also be making sure I get to the finish of the next five races, that's more important than anything. Renault were found to have ordered Nelson Piquet Jr to crash, as the ensuing safety car would strongly benefit Alonso.

Rosberg took pole position, and held off Daniel Ricciardo to win after Hamilton retired with brake failure. [20] Red Bull's design, used in the Friday practice sessions, had two vertical slots to the rear of its endplate along with another to avoid creating a vortex when it operated with the planes and endplate. [29][30] Vettel was the fastest driver of the session with a time of 1:48.028 set in the last twenty minutes of the one-hour period. [9], Before the race, Red Bull driver Mark Webber led the Drivers' Championship with 187 points. Klien was pushed into his garage to retire with a hydraulic problem on lap 34. Webber's team, Red Bull, opted to pit him early allowing him to move ahead of Hamilton. Webber caught Schumacher on lap 11 and passed the latter on the same lap at turn five after Schumacher ran wide. On lap 34, Pérez had a clash with Sergey Sirotkin which resulted in him getting a drive-through penalty. [7] Alonso secured his first Grand Chelem (leading the entire race from pole position with the fastest lap) of his career as well as the first since Schumacher achieved the feat at the 2004 Hungarian Grand Prix. Hamilton was told to increase his pace on the 24th lap to try to stay ahead of Webber after the pit stop phase. Hamilton made the first scheduled stop for tyres on lap 29 and re-emerged in eighth position behind Webber. Racing resumed at the end of lap five when the safety car pulled into the pit lane. He had lost control of his car after he went deep, under braking, heading for turn five (a corner that was damp from the earlier rain shower), with his right-rear wheel hitting the wall. [6] Since 2008, every race edition has featured at least one safety car, a total of 21 safety car deployments, as of 2019.

The Friday afternoon and evening sessions each lasted ninety minutes. This ruling demoted Hülkenberg to tenth while Massa moved to eighth and Sutil inherited ninth. Hülkenberg passed Glock in the first sector of the track for twelfth on lap 16. [3], Spaniard Fernando Alonso won the first Formula One edition of the Grand Prix, driving for the Renault team amid controversial circumstances, when it emerged a year later that his teammate Nelson Piquet Jr. had been ordered to crash on purpose by senior team management to bring out the safety car at a time chosen to benefit Alonso. [10][11], First organised in 1961, the race was initially known as the Orient Year Grand Prix. A surprise visitor to the front row alongside him was the Williams of Pastor Maldonado, but it was Sebastian Vettel's Red Bull that inherited the race lead when Hamilton pulled out with gearbox problems. The event takes place on the Marina Bay Street Circuit and was the inaugural night race[1][2] and first street circuit in Asia designed for Formula One races. [38][42] Webber was third, 1.2 seconds ahead of Button in fourth. He was ahead of Lewis Hamilton in second with 182 points and Fernando Alonso in third on 166 points. [38] Red Bull had told Webber to enter the pit lane, assuring him that it was the right decision, though he questioned the move. He also said that attempting to overtake Alonso in the final stages of the race was "the only chance" that he had of winning the race and hoped that the remaining tracks would suit his Red Bull car. [43] Brundle felt Hamilton should have given Webber more space and agreed with the stewards' decision.
