First Corner/Turn One

As the drivers take off from the starting grid, they hit the first corner.

This will be the first chance for drivers to overtake each other and will suit drivers like Felipe Massa, Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton who are notoriously impatient down the first stretch.

Being the first time on this street circuit, drivers might take a slow approach down turn one just to avoid any potential accidents before pushing on at full speed.

Raffles Boulevard

This is one of the longest straights of the circuit where drivers will hit their top speed of around 300km/h.

What might happen is that the race leader coming onto the Boulevard might slow down before the turn and bunch up everyone else behind him before hitting the accelerator to build a lead on the ones trailing behind as he zooms past the colonial buildings.

Anderson Bridge

This is one place where overtaking will not happen. Anderson Bridge.

Just ten meters wide, this is the narrowest part of the whole circuit where overtaking should not happen.

Anyone who tries to might just end up having to jam break and send themselves spiraling into oblivion.

Esplanade Bridge

Drivers will speed out off the turn on Anderson Bridge onto the Esplanade stretch which will see top speeds of 300km/h or more.

Grand Stand

This is the slowest part of the circuit as drivers have to maneuver under the Grand Stand itself and come back onto the street heading into the final stretch of the lap, the Singapore flyer.

The Singapore Flyer

Arguably the most scenic area, drivers will navigate two tough left-hand bends before going onto the home stretch.

The entire race will be a majestic route of epic proportions as 1600 lights have been put up around the track to ensure maximum clarity while making it a sight to behold from an aerial view.
