Marina Bay Street Circuit Pit Building

If you want to get to the start/finish line & pit lane, go to the riverside under the bridge and follow it along until you notice the track. We tried to go through the Singapore Flyer Ferris Wheel but you'll find yourself on the wrong side of the paddock where there are some security guards. Don't worry, it's completely fine and legal to go to the track as it is technically a street. This was a very cool experience and great for photo opportunities with each drivers' pit garage. You cannot drive into this area be aware.

as an f1 fan, this is definitely the highlight of my Singapore trip! you shouldn't miss this when you are in SG if you are a fan. the pitlane is open to the public, you just need go from the back of the singapore flyer. theres a little path/walkway there going to the pitlane garages. really really made my fangirl heart happy 🥹 will hopefully comeback with the 2025 lineup and in the day hehe

Best part about this is an urban circuit therefore open to the public, if you’re not a f1 fan you should skip this but excuse me I had so much fun walking through the track where a weekend a year the race kings make a huge event
