Here is another reason to visit Singapore. On September 8, 2008, the City-State will be hosting it's first ever Formula One Race. It will also be Formula One's first night race, and it's third street race, following Monaco and Valencia.

The proposed street ciruit includes two bridges and three-quarters of a round-about. The 4.8 km route was designed by Hermann Tilke. Apart from the bridges and round-about, a track will also pass a waterfront which appears to be an area for pits and start/end. It also consists of 24 turns (14 left hand and 10 right hand) and 61 laps.

The circuit will include a completely new pit straight which is being built along with the necessary buildings. The cars are likely to reach a maximum speed in excess of 200mph along Raffles Boulevard. The cars will also go through the 97-year-old Anderson Bridge, over the Singapore River.
