A forecast heat index above 31.0°C during the Sprint or race prompted the FIA to declare a formal heat warning for both Singapore sessions.

The FIA has declared a Heat Hazard — a formal heat warning — for both the Sprint and race at the 2026 Singapore Grand Prix. The FIA Race Director said the declaration followed an Official Weather Service forecast that the heat index would exceed 31.0°C at some point during the Sprint or race.

The notice is dated 8 October; the Grand Prix weekend runs from 9 to 11 October.
