While it's unclear what direct impact the investigation will have on the Grand Prix itself, its long term future are unlikely to be affected, given the economic benefit the #F1 race brings to Singapore and the region.
Details of the charges have not been made public, other than a "notice of arrest" for Ong in connection with a corruption probe from the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau.
Minister Iswaran has also been ordered to take a leave of absence from his government duties.
#F1 recently renewed its contract with the Singapore GP to host the race until 2028 inclusive.
There's been a lot of scaremonger reporting on social media regarding the future of the #F1 Singapore Grand Prix.
To rewind, billionaire businessman Ong Beng Seng, the hotelier who was instrumental to bringing #F1 in Singapore, has been caught up in a corruption probe involving the country's transport minister, S. Iswaran.
A closer look at the bespoke helmet that Sebastian Vettel wore at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Designed by JMD helmets and with approval from the Ayrton Senna Foundation, the helmet blends #Senna's iconic blue, yellow and green helmet with Vettel's own helmet design, with a stripe of black, red and yellow representing the German flag running front to back.
Favourite detail is the "GOODWOOD" stripe on the top of the visor styled to look like the Kenwood logo.
Vettel then drove another car from his personal collection, a #McLaren MP4/8 that Ayrton #Senna drove in the 1993 #F1 World Championship. Senna notched 5 victories in this car, and it has the distinction of being the car that Senna scored his final victory in #Adelaide with #McLaren.
Notice anything special about the helmet?
It's been over 10 years since Sebastian Vettel visited the #Goodwood Festival of Speed, and the 4 time #F1 World Champion certainly came correct.
Here is Vettel driving in a Williams Racing FW-14B from his personal collection, the same car that Nigel Mansell won his world championship in.
The last day of action at the #Goodwood Festival of Speed is now live. Sebastian Vettel was due to make an appearance on Saturday but the event was cancelled due to weather and wind. He will be driving today instead.
This year's Central Feature at the #Goodwood Festival of Speed celebrates #Porsche's 75th Anniversary. The soaring, gravity defying sculpture is designed by Gerry Judah and has a mix of Porsche production cars & race cars mounted on it. They include the Porsche 962 GTP, 963 LMDh and the 804 #F1 car.
We've got a bit of British countryside rain this morning so no lap records will be broken. Weather should ease heading into the afternoon.
Day 2 of action at the #Goodwood Festival of Speed is streaming live. You can watch all the action on YouTube below:
