Singapore is concerned forest fires could affect the city-state’s night formula one race in September.

The fires in western Indonesia are causing a haze in surrounding regions, including Malaysia and Singapore.

"They (Singapore) are worried about the haze from our forest. They are afraid it will disturb the running of the grand prix," said Indonesian climate change staff member Agus Purnomo, according to detik.com.
