FIA anticipates a MAJOR F1 change in the Singapore Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton has promised his fans acrose the world that they should expect excellent result……

Following a thriller in Azerbaijan, Formula 1 heads to the Singapore Grand Prix this weekend, but things will be different to last year if reported FIA plans are made official.

Last time out, in Baku, Oscar Piastri took the victory, helping McLaren topple Red Bull in the constructors’ standings, at least for the time being.
Heading to Singapore, Verstappen, Horner and company will be keen to get back on top, with races, and therefore their opportunity to get back to the top of the pile, running out at this stage of the season.
However, even when Red Bull had the dominant RB19 in 2023, it was Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz who came out on top around the exciting street circuit, and this year, things could be even more competitive with McLaren and Mercedes also in the mix.

With cars at the front having been more competitive, there should be even more close racing and overtaking at this year’s edition of the night race.

This will certainly be aided by a major change expected to be made to the track by the sport’s governing body, too.

Following track changes made in 2023, a fourth Drag Reduction System (DRS) zone has now reportedly been added for the 2024 race, meaning drivers will have more opportunities to get close to their on-track rivals.

This is set to be added between turns 14 and 16, with three other zones already in use at the track and should aid overtaking, although we have seen at some circuits previously that DRS works better in some places than others.
