S'PORE GP TO FEATURE SPRINT RACE NEXT YEAR
September 17, 2025
|The Straits Times
It will be 1 of 6 host circuits, 'providing even more competitive racing on all 3 event days'
Motor racing fans can expect more thrills at the Formula One Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix in 2026, when the sprint race makes its debut at the Marina Bay Street Circuit from Oct 9 to 11.
The other sprint races for the 2026 season will be in China (March 13-15), Miami (May 1-3), Canada (May 22-24), Britain (July 3-5) and the Netherlands (Aug 21-23).
Jonathan Hallett, director of race promoter Singapore GP, said in a statement on Sept 16: "We are thrilled to be one of six circuits to host the F1 Sprint next year.
"We've already seen new Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix winners each year since 2022... with new regulations, a new team joining the grid, as well as the F1 Sprint, fans can look forward to even more competitive racing as the drivers go all out on all three event days."
Tickets for the 2026 race will be "released in phases soon and will be limited to select ticket categories only", said Singapore GP.
Introduced in 2021 to increase the sport's entertainment value, sprint races run for 100km, or about one-third the length of a regular F1 race, and last for about 30 minutes.
