356 Cup Round 7: Singapore

Singapore delivered drama from the very first lap. Tiara, fresh off her Monza triumph, carried that momentum straight into Marina Bay — launching into the lead with unwavering confidence. Shane, in a freshly rebuilt 356 after the throttle failure in Italy, looked composed but tentative, his car still not quite back to its familiar rhythm.

Through the opening laps, Tiara set the pace with precise, fearless driving, building a small cushion as Shane tried to find grip and confidence. Midway through, a moment of over-aggression from Tiara saw her clip a barrier — handing Shane a brief reprieve and the race lead. But the calm didn’t last. In her charge to reclaim position, Tiara made heavy contact with Shane’s rear bumper, spinning him around and causing lasting damage that forced him to limp home.

Officials were swift in their judgment: Tiara received her first official warning for unsportsmanlike conduct and breach of racing etiquette. Still, she crossed the line first with 18 laps completed and a 10.597 best lap, while Shane managed 13 laps with a 10.745 set before the incident.

The result gives Tiara a 4–3 lead in the season standings, though Shane continues to lead on total laps — 120 to 116. With emotions running high and reputations on the line, the 356 Cup now heads to Mexico, where redemption and retribution are both very much on the table.
