The Singapore Grand Prix signals a shift in landscape, as Formula 1 leaves Europe behind for the remainder of the 2023 season.

The remaining eight races of the campaign will take place across Asia and the Americas, with the truly global sector of the season set to test drivers to their limits.

The Singapore street circuit is just about as tricky as they come, with low average speed and races that typically push the upper two-hour limit on race times.

Driver fitness is more critical here than in any other race, and Max Verstappen will be determined to put in the hard yards now to maintain his electrifying hot streak of form.

The flying Dutchman has claimed 10 consecutive victories – but the narrow, twisting circuit in Singapore has no time for sentiment. Complacency will be punished.

RadioTimes.com brings you the full schedule for race weekend at the Singapore Grand Prix.
