Cadillac driver Valtteri Bottas has begun his unconventional journey from Malaysia to Singapore on a bicycle, sharing the start of the ride on Instagram on Sunday night. The unique commute came just hours after finishing last at the Bahrain Grand Prix held at the Sepang International Circuit.
Data from the Finn's Strava account showed that he covered an impressive 56.6 kilometers from the circuit to Port Dickson, taking two hours and eight minutes to complete the opening leg of his transit between back-to-back race weekends.
This marks a notably distinct way to travel from race to race as Singapore follows Malaysia directly on the calendar, with the Marina Bay Street Circuit set to host round 17 during the upcoming weekend under intense logistical pressure.
Long recognized as one of the paddock's most committed cyclists away from his F1 cockpit, Valtteri Bottas has co-founded gravel races including FNLD GRVL in his homeland and RADL GRVL in Australia, while also qualifying for the UCI Gravel World Championships through strong age-category finishes. His cycling lifestyle is deeply rooted, sharing a close personal connection with professional road and gravel rider Tiffany Cromwell.
The physical switch from Sepang to Marina Bay presents one of the most demanding transitions of the year. Team freight must quickly clear customs and cross the border within a tight window, while personnel must rapidly adjust from daytime racing in Malaysia to Singapore's glamorous night event under floodlights.
