P1racenews AI automatic summary:
The Singapore Grand Prix takes place this weekend, with the Marina Bay Circuit featuring a much different element compared to previous years.
This weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix at Marina Bay Circuit will introduce a fourth Drag Reduction System (DRS) zone, a change from the usual three zones on the track. Since its first race in 2008, the Singapore Grand Prix has seen ongoing transformations, such as the replacement of Turns 16 to 19 with a 400-meter straight last year. The new DRS zone added for the 2024 edition will allow drivers to activate their rear wing flaps between Turn 14 and Turn 16. With additional DRS zones between Turn 19 and Turn 1, Turn 5 and Turn 7, as well as Turn 13 and 14, the circuit aims to enhance overtaking opportunities. Following a track resurfacing job between various turns, Ferrari is poised to continue their quest for a second consecutive win at the Singapore Grand Prix this weekend.
