Students in selected secondary schools and junior colleges will take part in a special programme, with a talk covering the science, technology and engineering behind the motor sport, as well as careers in the automotive industry.
They will also have a go at miniature racing cars from the F1 in Schools challenge, and get an understanding of the principles of automotive engineering.
Students at selected institutes of higher learning (IHL) will get to study The Grand Prix Effect: From Marina Bay to the Global Stage.
