THE Singapore Grand Prix has become a regular fixture on the Formula One calendar, and returns once again today.
Lewis Hamilton is on pole as F1 returns to the city state where a race will be held every year until 2021, with a contract extension having been signed last year.
Why is the Singapore Grand Prix held at night?
The main reason for holding the Singapore Grand Prix at night was so an Asian race could be broadcast at lunchtime in the UK.
As the race is held on a street circuit, it could be properly illuminated during the evening, with demand for tickets remaining high.
And the Singapore Tourism Board were also more than happy to promote their city by night.

What time does the race start?
As per the strategic goal of holding a race in Asia at a time that suits European markets, the Singapore Grand Prix will begin at 1pm on Sunday, September 16.
That’s 8pm local time.
Singapore is seven hours ahead of UK summer time, meaning the race will finish just before 10pm local time.
Who has won the most Singapore Grand Prix races?
Sebastian Vettel is the dominant driver in Singapore, having won it four times.
Graeme Lawrence won the race three times – 1969, 1970 and 1971 – before it was discontinued in 1973, with Lewis Hamilton also having three wins.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.
Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
