The Singapore Grand Prix has it all ... excitement, drama, atmosphere and history.

It’s held in September at the “business end” of the racing season when the top contenders for the World Championship are really fighting tooth and nail for every point. It’s a great race in a great location, right in the heart of the city, and it starts at 9.00pm - taking advantage of the cooler night air.

The challenging street circuit is one of the longest on the current F1 calendar, with the lap record standing in the 1:48 second bracket.

The 2010 Singapore Grand Prix had spectators on their feet with a nail-biting finish. It was close right from the beginning, with Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso ultimately holding out a hard-charging Sebastian Vettel, with Aussie title contender Mark Webber bagging a solid points haul in third.

Above all, it was an event on a grand scale. With the race being held under lights, the brakes glowing red-hot at night added another dimension to the drama.

The Singapore Grand Prix is a great race that’s produced some close finishes and some controversy, including the controversial "Crashgate" scenario where Renault’s driver deliberately crashed to deploy the safety car allowing his ‘partner’ to win the race.

A trip to the Singapore Grand Prix is an unforgettable experience. The event itself is truly spectacular. Being held in the heart of Singapore, you’re never far from the other delights of this sophisticated and dynamic Asian city. Restaurants, nightlife, shopping ... and everything else that goes to make Singapore a vibrant modern city. The phrase “a trip of a lifetime” is sometimes an exaggeration ... but not when it’s a trip to the Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix.
