SINGAPORE AIRLINES EXTENDS FORMULA 1® SINGAPORE GRAND PRIX TITLE SPONSORSHIP FOR THREE MORE YEARS

Singapore Airlines (SIA) will continue as title sponsor of the FORMULA 1 SINGAPORE AIRLINES SINGAPORE GRAND PRIX for three more years, starting with this year’s race which will be held from 30 September to 2 October 2022.

The Singapore Grand Prix is one of Formula 1’s premier and most-anticipated events, as drivers race through the Marina Bay Street Circuit against the spectacular backdrop of the city’s night-time skyline.

SIA first signed as the title sponsor in 2014 for four years, and subsequently extended it in 2018 and 2020 for two years respectively. This latest three-year extension was announced by SIA Executive Vice President Commercial Lee Lik Hsin and Formula 1 Managing Director of Commercial Brandon Snow.

Mr Lee Lik Hsin, Executive Vice President, Commercial, Singapore Airlines, said: “This year’s highly anticipated Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix will be an important milestone for Singapore, marking the return of a major international sporting event to the city after a two-year disruption due to the pandemic. The race will be warmly welcomed by Singapore residents and visitors alike, and will enhance our reputation as a global city. SIA’s extension of its title sponsorship signals our continued support for both tourism and sports, complements the expansion of our global network, and will bolster Singapore’s recovery as a key international air hub.”

Mr Brandon Snow, Managing Director of Commercial, Formula 1, said: “We are pleased that Singapore Airlines will continue to be the title sponsor of the Singapore Grand Prix for another three years. The Singapore Grand Prix is the original F1 night race, an iconic Formula 1 event loved by fans and drivers, and it returns to the calendar after two years away. This year’s race will see further use of renewable energy and sustainable materials, and the commitments from Singapore Airlines towards sustainable aviation fuels reflect the continued alignment between all partners and Formula 1 in reducing environmental impact.”
