The Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix 2026 (SGP) has been exempted from the requirements of the Beverage Container Return Scheme (BCRS).
In an announcement posted on SGP's website, race promoter Singapore GP said that polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottled beverages sold in the Circuit Park do not include a 10-cent BCRS deposit.
It also urged racegoers to recycle their empty PET bottles in designated bins located around the Circuit Park.
Responding to AsiaOne's queries, the National Environment Agency (NEA) confirmed the exemption, explaining that this is due to F1 Singapore taking place shortly after the full implementation of the BCRS .
The scheme went into full swing on Oct 1, following a six-month transition period that began on April 1.
"Considering the timing of the event so close to the full rollout of the BCRS, as well as its scale and nature, NEA has granted an exemption to SGP and all food and beverage (F&B) operators permitted by SGP to sell beverages within the Circuit Park, from charging a 10-cent BCRS deposit on regulated beverages sold within the Circuit Park," said the agency.
NEA similarly urged racegoers to use designated recycling bins to dispose of used beverage containers.
Apart from the website, Singapore GP will also issue push notifications through the SGP mobile app on Oct 9.
It will also put up notices at F&B outlets and SGP Grid Bars within the Circuit Park.
The 2026 edition of the Singapore Grand Prix is set to take place under unhealthy air quality , but it will also contend with higher temperatures.
On Oct 8, FIA F1 race director Rui Marques declared SGP a heat-hazard race , with temperatures forecast to exceed 31 deg C during the sprint and race.
2026 年新加坡一级方程式大奖赛 (SGP) 已获准豁免饮料容器回收计划 (BCRS) 的要求。
新加坡大奖赛主办方在新加坡大奖赛官网发布的公告中表示，在赛道公园出售的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯（PET）瓶装饮料不包含 10 分的 BCRS 押金。
它还敦促赛车观众将空的PET瓶放入赛道公园周围指定的回收箱中。
针对 AsiaOne 的询问，国家环境局 (NEA) 确认了这一豁免，并解释说这是因为 F1 新加坡站是在 BCRS 全面实施后不久举行的。
该计划于 10 月 1 日全面实施，此前从 4 月 1 日开始实施了为期六个月的过渡期。
“考虑到此次活动的时间点与BCRS全面推出时间如此接近，以及活动的规模和性质，国家环境局已豁免SGP以及所有经SGP许可在赛道公园内销售饮料的餐饮运营商，免除其在赛道公园内销售的受管制饮料收取10分BCRS押金，”该机构表示。
新加坡国家环境局也同样敦促赛马观众使用指定的回收箱处理用过的饮料容器。
除了网站之外，新加坡大奖赛还将于 10 月 9 日通过 SGP 手机应用程序发布推送通知。
它还将在赛道公园内的餐饮店和 SGP Grid Bars 张贴告示。
2026 年新加坡大奖赛将在空气质量不佳的情况下举行，同时还将面临更高的气温。
10 月 8 日，国际汽联 F1 赛事总监鲁伊·马克斯宣布圣保罗大奖赛为高温危险赛事，预计冲刺和比赛期间气温将超过 31 摄氏度。
