For the second consecutive race weekend, Carlos Sainz will lead the field off the line after he claimed pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix.
The Spaniard will be looking to fend off the Mercedes of George Russell who narrowly missed out on pole position.
However, both drivers have a great opportunity to win the race as the struggling Red Bull team could only manage 11th and 13th with Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez respectively.
On Sunday morning, it was confirmed that Lance Stroll will not be taking part in the race, meaning 19 cars are planned to take the start, with all grid positions remaining unchanged as he was set to start 20th.
This was further reduced to 18 cars on the grid after Zhou Guanyu was relegated to a pit-lane start following Alfa Romeo breaking parc ferme conditions to change the set-up of his car.
