Singapore F1 Grand Prix
Sanctioned by the Fédération Internationale de L'Automobile (FIA), the Formula One World Championship – F1 in short - is a world-class event deemed to be highest in its class.Broadcasted worldwide with a global audience of over 600 million people, an F1 season comprises a series of auto races held in different venues all over the world, collectively known as the F1 Grand Prix. The results of each race are then combined to determine the two F1 World Champions, one for individual driver and one for constructor (the automobile company to which a team of drivers belong).
The ‘Formula’ in Formula One refers to the set of rules that all participants must adhere to, and Formula One cars race at a speed of 220mph, with engines revving up to 18,000 RPM.
Traditionally, Europe is the epicenter of the Formula One World Championship. Most of the teams are based in Europe, with a majority of the races taking place here. However, in recent years, the major racing event’s scope has significantly widened to include the rest of the world. Out of the 18 races last year, nine were held outside Europe, with Bahrain, Singapore and Malaysia being some of the most popular ones.
