In light of the upcoming Singapore GP, the race promotor has made several updates to the track to address the feedback from the drivers. The 5.073km track has been resurfaced to reduce the bumpiness between Turns 3 and 7 as well as at Turns 14 and 19.

The pit lane, which has been lowered by 1cm since last year's race, has also been resurfaced to enable the cars to rejoin the track more smoothly.

The Singapore Sling (Turn 10) has also been tweaked slightly. The kerbs have been adjusted to a more gradual curve in order for the drivers to make safer exits from the chicane.

Singapore GP has also gone a step further this year, by introducing a refreshing burst of colour around the track. The track walls have been painted blue, green and yellow, marking the different zones within the Marina Bay Street Circuit. The run-off areas will also be painted red, white and yellow.
