[edit] Nice

The article looks nicer now. - 218.186.9.1 14:22, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, but it is unnecesary to remove information on the earlier proposed routes. Please restore the history section.--Huaiwei 14:24, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Exact location

For those who wish to know, I've found the exact location of the circuit, with parts of the circuit using the intersection on Stamford Road/Nicoll highway. The current map may want to be edited slightly to be more accurate, though the clarity of a separate track may be lost.

In addition, the track seems to loop round Ophir Road (against the one way flow) and then join Republic Boulevard to the start/finish straight. The route needs to be cited. (nevermind) --TheTallOne 22:33, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Traffic

It looks like an awesome circuit but I wonder about the traffic congestion. Nicoll Highway is one busy road. Look out for articles about such disruption in the future! Auswide 15:00, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Counter-clockwise

This article states that the race will be run in a counter-clockwise direction. Should we change the circuit map and mention this, or await more confirmation? Aldango 15:22, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

done. updated map. - oahiyeel talk 19:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
It seems the track layout will also change slightly. Look: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/275808/1/.html JCCyC (talk) 21:17, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
That was the "2nd version" of the track. The first 3 turns were amended after that. You may view the latest track layout at the formula one website. - oahiyeel talk 21:45, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] V8 Supercars

it is said that V8 Supercars Australia Chairman Tony Cochrane wants a V8 Suppercar race druing the day as a support race.mad maper 16:43 4 feburary 2008

He wants a street race in Sydney too and he won't get that either. It's not really relevant to add information about who would like to run there. --Falcadore (talk) 10:03, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] External links

I added link to BBC's F1 circuit guide--Cheetaih (talk) 02:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
