For the second Grand Prix weekend at the Marina Bay Street Circuit in the harbour of Singapore, the organisers of the night race have decided to change the track at several places and this to improve racing.

The pit entry has been realigned to leave the track before Turn 22, and the pit exit has been realigned to join the track after the first corner. There are new kerbs on the entry to Turns One and Five, and a new surface between Turns Five and Seven.

The second and third apexes of Turn 10 have been moved left and right respectively to make the chicane slower, and the three apexes of Turn 10 have been redesigned in order to reduce the risk of a car being damaged if it crosses them. The apexes of Turns 13 and 14 have been tightened slightly. And the wall around the outside of Turns 22 and 23 has been moved closer to the track.
