Race times are approximate. Timezone offsets may vary due to daylight saving time.
Qualifying: Saturday, Oct 10 at 21:00 SGT, UTC+8
F1 qualifying uses a three-part knockout format to set the grid for the Grand Prix:
The entire qualifying session lasts approximately one hour including breaks between segments. The Grand Prix starts Sunday, Oct 11 at 20:00 SGT, UTC+8.
Sprint Qualifying: Friday, Oct 9 at 21:30 SGT, UTC+8
Sprint Race: Saturday, Oct 10 at 17:30 SGT, UTC+8
Sprint weekends replace Friday's second practice with Sprint Qualifying (also called Sprint Shootout). The format mirrors standard qualifying (SQ1/SQ2/SQ3) but with shorter sessions — 12, 10, and 8 minutes respectively.
The Sprint Race runs on Saturday over approximately 100 km (about one-third of a full race distance, typically 17–24 laps). The top 8 finishers score points (8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1). No mandatory pit stops required.
