    Do you think Singapore can handle F1 race? Can they built some good track to cater this race? What do you think?

    I don't see why not, making a new track is easier than trying to update an old track in an area that can't cope (like what we did in England years ago). They'll know that it's worth the investment for the publicity and tourism it will bring.

    Malaysia has a GP, and Singapore is too close to Malaysia to be awarded a GP.

    I personally do not reside in Singapore, and so I cannot comment on the infrastructure in the city.

    It is possible. Bernie announced that he wants 20 races next year (Ron Dennis had some arguments against but we all know who will make a decision :) ). Singapore is very interesting track and there are great possibilities to see the race there.

    Well if Singapore finally get F1 started there, we can see new races and new infrastructure plus new strategies taken by all F1 teams.

    It good to see some race track built on sea. Maybe Singapore Government should take this idea.

    In the news, Singapore GP will be a road race like monte carlo. Singapore has no land to build a race track for F1. It would probably cause a riot if the government decides to use land in this land-scarce country to build a race track.
