    SOME 86,970 spectators thronged the Marina Bay street circuit to catch the 2015 Singapore Grand Prix, up slightly from last year and the third highest attendance for the race since Singapore started hosting the Formula One (F1) in 2008.

    The race, which is now in its eighth year, saw its biggest crowds of 100,000 back at the inaugural night race. The second highest attendance was for the 2013 edition with some 87,500 attendees.
