Round 18 of the 2025 F1 championship sees the sport descend upon the Marina Bay Circuit, which hosts the Singapore Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
First held in 2008, Singapore marked a first for F1 as it became the sport’s first-ever night race – a theme that has been adopted by various venues ever since.<\/p>\n
Oscar Piastri enters the round as the championship leader, holding a 25-point margin over team-mate Lando Norris.<\/p>\n
Max Verstappen is looking to make a late charge in the title fight following his back-to-back wins in Italy and Azerbaijan.<\/p>\n
However, the Singapore track remains the only circuit on the current schedule that he has failed to win at during his successful F1 career.<\/p>\n
Who will get off to the best start during the first 60 minutes of the weekend during free practice one? It’s time to find out!<\/p>\n
