A Prelude To F1 Grand Prix
Two months before the Ferraris of Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa roll into the F1 Paddock at Marina Bay for September’s SingTel Singapore Grand Prix, the newly completed F1 pit building (located next to the Singapore Flyer) played host to the Grand Finale of the K1 Karting Series over the weekend.
The K1 Grand Finale, jointly organized by the Singapore Motor Sports Association and C S Racing, is a culmination of activities as part of a larger effort to encourage motorsports in Singapore and also to rev up support for the world’s first night street race on September 28.
Some of the highlights motorsports buffs got to enjoy at the Grand Finale included:
- Drifting and stunt driving demos by the best international drivers in the business
- Supercar, dress-up car, classic car and Formula car displays
- Go-karting on the F1 track
- Pit Crew Challenge
I was there to enjoy the adrenalin rush, smell a lot of burnt rubbers and generally soak in the party atmosphere of the event. Watch the videos (yours truly made a cameo appearance) for some adrenalin-pumping drifting actions, quirky dress-up and disco car display and miniature F1 race.
The crowd pleaser - Stunt driving demos
Fancy cars display and mobile disco on wheels!
That was a lot of videos for one post. More photos and a video to be continued… Stay tune!
