The Singapore Grand Prix according to social
Car park watch parties, lizards and Harvard studies: The best of social from Marina Bay
The stunning Singapore Grand Prix has always been among our favourite Formula 1 races, especially when it comes to photography, thanks to the Marina Bay Street Circuit’s glistening lights and jaw-dropping skyscrapers, but those images hit different when it's your drivers at the front of the field and on the podium.
We’ve enjoyed some amazing memories in Singapore over the years, but rarely have we seen such a dominant performance from our team as we secured our first-ever double podium at Marina Bay.
Following Lando’s third victory of the year and Oscar’s seventh podium, we celebrated by trawling through social media and picking out our favourite fan posts on X. Here’s the best of what we found…
The seal of approval we were after for our limited edition one-off Legend Reborn livery. 🐶

Waking up for Singapore Qualifying is a right of passage in many a young F1 fan’s life.
It’s 345am here…..he’s got merch on and is ready to go…..too bad mom is mean and sent him back to bed…… with the promise I would wake him in a few hours for Quali 😆 😴 🧡 #FansLikeNoOther #SingaporeGP #F1 #MulletMafia pic.twitter.com/Hhd5kC19cJ

The lizard was looking to make it into Q3 for the third year in a row. 🦎
It isn't Singapore without a visit from a lizard!

We’re not too proud to laugh at our own jokes.
I see what you did there……… 😆 🦎 🧡 Now that’s punny
— Ashley K (@Mrsklipp) September 21, 2024
Back to business as usual. Lando and Oscar both made it through to Q3 for the 17th time in 18 rounds this season.
awesome work, finish the job in q3 🔥

Anyone else for an F1 car park watch-along party?
Best way to watch quali, standing in Halfords car park with two strangers who see your McLaren top and we start chatting all things McLaren. @McLarenF1 #FansLikeNoOther #SingaporeGP

Good luck, @McLarenF1 @LandoNorris @OscarPiastri @ZBrownCEO for the #SingaporeGP @F1NightRace this evening. I’m not there, but I still feel like I am wilting in the grandstands the relatively short distance further north I am in Perak, Malaysia. Let’s go, team! #FansLikeNoOther pic.twitter.com/pFI5HJeivt

Basically, happy race day/night.
Cheering on, team! Let's go! 🧡
— Erin (@ErinNormal) September 22, 2024
Nailed the start. Lando scuttled off into the lead thanks to a speedy launch, leaving those behind him to fight for the final spots on the podium.
What a brilliant start by Lando 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
— Andrea🧡🏎🇦🇺🧡 (@Andreadn34) September 22, 2024
That’s what we’re battling for. 👊
Nice! Double podium for the team. ☺️🧡
— Elton Lam (@walkingleaf79) September 22, 2024
Recognise.
12 podiums and 3 double podiums for the team. Dominant win and almost a grand slam from LN and a great drive for Oscar to get on that podium. So well deserved. Thank you, team 🧡
— Oana (@OanaVancea) September 22, 2024
Did y'all enjoy that? (Don't mind us, just getting into the spirit ahead of Austin).
IT WAAASASS THANK YOU TEAM!!! 🧡
— key (@lindbladdie) September 22, 2024

We Singa-poured champagne all over Lando. 🍾
he’s getting absolutely drenched 😁 (as he should)
— laura ᵕ̈ (@everythinglando) September 22, 2024
Thank you, as always, to those of you who never gave up on us.
So good to see the Mighty McLaren right back at the front. Its where we belong. It's been a long few years. Thank you Team #FansLikeNoOther #BelieveInMcLaren

We’re starting to think so too…
I think you’ll need to build a whole new trophy cabinet just to display the 2024 season
— Nini 🤍 (@ExileftNini) September 23, 2024
At least we’ve now got a month to work out where to put all of our new trophies… We’ll see you all in Austin in October. Time to watch the 2024 highlights on repeat, we guess.
