Star-spotting at Fl: From Hyun Bin to Chen Bo-lin
The Straits Times
|October 06, 2025
The annual Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix is not only a feast of speed and excitement, but also a gathering of local and foreign stars.
Among them was homegrown actor Desmond Tan, who met Singaporean singer JJ Lin at the event.
"All smiles during my first Fl pit lane experience," Tan wrote on social media early on Oct 5, sharing a video of his experience. "I smiled until my mouth went numb."
The 39-year-old posted again later that day. "As an F1 fan, this is the ultimate dream," the Strike Gold (2023) actor wrote. "Walking the pit lane and the Walk of Fame... These were the moments I always watched on my screen and fantasised about."
Local actor Chase Tan, 35, started his Fl weekend strong on Oct 3.
