My take is a YES! Definitely.

But isn't Singapore a bit too small? Even having the Monte Carlo racing track style, can Singapore able to block so many roads and lanes? This obviously will disrupt Singapore public transportation system. Furthermore, Singaporeans are dependants on its public transports, I think blocking roads could bring negative impact on its economy.
And with all the expansions going to the IR and Sentosa upgrading, isn't it too ambitious?- I mean, there's nothing wrong being ambititious, but look, there are some neighbours who are a bit unhappy with Singapore's decision. Shouldn't Singapore take a step back and let matters go in a flow?

it's definitely a yes for me... f1 is widely followed in singapore... and singapore, though land scarce, can allocate a space dedicated for f1 alone... it has the necessary support infrastructure to make f1 successful here...

excellent communication networks, ultra-efficient workforce... predominantly english-speaking people... wide roads... singapore has a lot of tourist attractions that makes it a viable place to hold an f1 grand prix...

I think so... why not if the economic reasons make sense. Everyone is in it for the money, that is why European tracks are being booted off the calendar. Because they cant make money with the newer races coming up in hungrier countries.

As for overtaking, most of the races lack overtaking opportunites anyway, so this is nothing like MotoGP racing in the first place.

The Singaporean public transport will definitely be impacted; that's for sure. The only way is probably to avoid those roads for a couple of weeks. Not much choice - it's a price to pay for F1 to come to Singapore.

As for taking a step back because of the neighboring countries... I say no. If it is for internal reasons, sure... but Singapore shouldnt take a step back just because others are envious or because others don't like it.

NO!

First of all, Singapore will never have the space to build a proper race track, so their only solution is a street race. Well, with current situation in F1 where overtaking is getting more and more impossible, the last thing we need is another street track. It will be very very boring. What's more, adding Singapore into the calander would only mean another European track being booted off the list, and we may possibly lose a track with interesting race for one that will only bring us a boring procession of F1 cars. F1 don't need another street race to make it more boring.

Furthermore, Singapore never really had an experience in auto racing. They are there mearly for the money and fame F1 brings. Not really a good motivation to host a F1 race.

Some weeks back I saw Mark Webber driving a Porsche 911 GT3 around Singapore's track.

i assume that comes right down to what the something is. Conditional on the lights being accomplished good, if the "general" issues (automobile crashes, spin outs, run offs, engine mess ups, and so on) that take place in a race take place, and there is no reason to have faith they gained't take place in a night race, then those issues can't be construed as being the outcomes of having the race at night. in spite of the undeniable fact that, if some thing occurred e.g. as a results of the music being improperly illuminated and somebody substitute into killed, then the FIA and the organizer might could answer some very confusing questions. I observed a remark this morning via Nico Rosberg, who mentioned he believed the lights could be very reliable because of the fact the FIA substitute into in charge of it. i might think of the lights gadget could be very thorough and have equipped in redundancy to boot.

Yeah, I don't know about the Singapore track thing. I don't think it would work.
