Qualifying for the Singapore Grand Prix is likely to remain dry. There is very little chance of rainfall at the Marina Bay Street Circuit but temperatures will remain high into the night and the humidity is always a challenge. There is rain on the radar for Sunday, but it's due to fall before the start of the Grand Prix.
A dry session might be welcomed by most of the drivers on the grid. After Friday's running, it seems like Red Bull are slightly behind on pure pace. If there is a weekend where they will be beaten in 2023, it seems like this has the greatest chance to be it. Therefore, teams and drivers from the likes of Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren and Aston Martin will be hoping for a simple dry session.
