Singapore F1 Grand Prix Day 1 - 21Sep12 (Fri)

This is the 5th Singapore SingTel F1 Grand Prix... Time pass.. I still remember all the hypes and excitements in 2008 when Singapore stage the first F1 Grand Prix...
This year supporting races includes GP2, Porsche Carrera Asia Cup & Ferrari Challenge.. When i arrived at  gate 3, the queue was so long.. so i walk over to gate 4, shorter queue and faster. Half way through the Ferrari practice session it started to rain.. luckily i mange to take break in the Esplanade.. The rain manage to stop before the F1 practice session..
In the evening, Jay Chou stage a fantastic concert at the Padang Stage.. The whole circuit has been converted into a concert.. :) 

Here are some of the pics..
 The long queue at Gate 3.

 Shorter queue at Gate 4, gate 4 will be closed at 9.30pm..

 Jay Chou's Fans queuing up for their fan pass.. Fans pass allows the fans to be nearer to the stage.. I wonder these fan are her for F1 or Jay Chou.. 2-in-1 mah? What a great deal...!!

 Some of the F1 Teams Official Merchandise on sale.. See an Australian F1 fan, supporting Mark Webber is suppose..

Team Mercedes Merchandise Stall.. See Michael Schumacher is here too..

 Porsche Carrera Asia Cup Practice Session.. retrun for the 5th time, featuring the new Porsche 911.. I love the sound of the Porsche 911, the true German engineering.

 Here comes the prancing horses.. The aggressive roar from the Ferrari 458 racecars, 4.5 litre V8 engine, creating a 570 horsepower.

GH MUMM the Official F1 Chanpagne... This is what i will be wearing the next three days.. Thank to my friend Edwin for the great F1 souvenir... The program list cum circuit map in pocket size..

 That me in the GH MUMM cap.. This is Turn 11 walk-about viewing area.. This year they shift the platform  more to the left.. so hardly able to see Turn 10's Singapore Sling (Accident Prone Area)

 The classic Mercedes SL..

 At the Esplande Bridge.. The crowd starts pouring in..

 Red Bull in action during the practice session.
