F1 fans looking for a macro view of the world's first night race can consider making a pitstop at the Singapore Flyer.

On Wednesday, members of the media were given the chance to check out the aerial race track views from the giant observation wheel.

Indeed, the Flyer offers a unique vantage point for high-speed aficionados who already have tickets to the Singapore Grand Prix (you can't get in without a ticket on race day).

For $29.50, you can see about 80 per cent of the track.

Visitors to the Singapore Flyer would get these vantage points if they board the world's largest observation wheel come race day on Sep28.

With the exception of the bit after turn 1, Nicoll Highway and parts of Esplanade Drive, much of the 5.067km circuit can be seen from ground-up to 165m in the air.

While the Padang is visible from the capsule, having a pair of binoculars would enhance your viewing experience.

The clearest views throughout the half-hour ride are of the start/finish line and the area surrounding the floating platform.

Fans also need not worry about missing the action on ground zero as the live screening of the race can be seen from within the capsule.

But ultimately, the Singapore Flyer is just one of many places where one can catch the Singapore Grand Prix.

Come raceday, spectators will be in the driving seat as they decide where they want to witness the historic night race from.
