I guess so. It's a 4.8-kilometre (three-mile) route proposed by designer Hermann Tilke.

nice! but the track seems to have too many sharp corners.

btw, anyone heard abt the F1 track in India? it is suppose to be finished by 2008. some guy called Vijay Mallya is building it i guess. Saw it the other day in the Indian news.

Monaco is about 350 times smaller in square kilometers than Singapore and they have held F1 races for years now.

Don't use sms lingo in the forums.

I think he he should be the one building it. He was a professional race car driver in the past and has driven F1 cars. He has about 260 classic race cars in his 26 residences around the world. A billionaire businessman and the owner of Kingfisher Airlines, he has bought brand new aircrafts to build his fleet and is also the first Indian to order 5 Airbus A380s. He also owns a few yachts including one of the largest private yachts in the world ( Click for Image and a Boeing 727 Business Jet and a Gulfstream V.
