Sunday's night-time race is the 13th in Singapore since its debut in 2008. Three current drivers have won at the 23 corner circuit -- Fernando Alonso (2008, 2010), Lewis Hamilton (2009, 2014, 2017, 2018) and Sebastian Vettel (2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2019).

Mercedes have won the race four times, Red Bull and Ferrari three each. Ferrari, in 2019, were the first team to finish one-two in Singapore. Hamilton and Vettel have each been on pole four times in Singapore. The race has been won from pole position on eight occasions.

The lowest winning grid position is 15th for Alonso in a now-notorious 2008 race in which Brazilian team mate Nelson Piquet crashed his Renault deliberately on team orders. The race is the longest in terms of time to complete and runs close to the two-hour limit.

The safety car has featured in all 12 editions. Four drivers are making Singapore debuts: Mick Schumacher (Haas), Nicholas Latifi (Williams), Guanyu Zhou (Alfa Romeo) and Yuki Tsunoda (AlphaTauri).

TITLE Verstappen will take his second title if he wins and scores 22 points more than Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, 13 more than Red Bull team mate Sergio Perez and six more than Mercedes' George Russell.

Ferrari's Carlos Sainz also remains in mathematical contention but would have to score 11 points more than Verstappen on Sunday. It would be the first time the drivers' championship has been settled in Singapore.

RACE WINS Red Bull have won 12 of 16 races and Ferrari the rest. Verstappen has won 11 and is on course to set a record for most victories in a season.

Ferrari's Leclerc and Sainz have three and one wins respectively, and Perez one. Verstappen is chasing his sixth win in a row and 32nd of his career, which would move him alongside Alonso as sixth-equal in the all-time winning list.
