How Will Singapore GP Handle Haze During F1 Race?

The Singapore Grand Prix (SGP) is preparing for potential haze disruptions during this year's race as the city-state faces an increased risk of transboundary smoke due to fires in Indonesia. Organisers have established a contingency plan in coordination with government agencies, including the Interagency Haze Task Force, to monitor air quality and respond to any issues that may affect visibility, public health, or race operations.

Measures include keeping spectators and staff informed about haze conditions, ensuring medical assistance and N95 masks are available, and establishing tiered response plans based on the severity of the haze. While the SGP is not currently planning to cancel or postpone the race, decisions will be made in coordination with authorities if air quality creates problems for safety, visibility, or race operations.
