As Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel heads to Singapore intent on winning again to avenge his defeat there by Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso last year, even though just a third-place finish could be sufficient to clinch his second consecutive world championship, Formula One racing’s only night race is set to be a gripper.

“We’ve had some good races in Singapore in the past, especially last year when we finished second, just behind Fernando,” Vettel says. “I love the track, it’s very challenging; there are a lot of corners, it’s very long, it’s hot and it’s a night race, so there are a lot of special things about Singapore. The car seems to be very competitive there, so I hope we can go back there this year and win – it would be very special.
