The 2008 FORMULA 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix is scheduled on the 28 September 2008 on Singapore's public roads around the Marina Bay area. Surely this must be one of the highlights of the year and i just heard it on the TV that Tixs are on sale now!!!
The proposed 5.067km long Night street circuit offers multiple overtaking opportunities as well as fast and challenging turns.
Did you also know that the F1 Singapore Grand Prix will be one of three races in the 2008 F1 calendar to run anticlockwise?
