Gautam, I think Singapore will be outpricing itself on its first attempt. I've been hounding Hotels & the Singapore GP helpline & trust me - to say its expensive would be an understatement.

Just some pointers on hotel accommodations -

Hotel on Orchard Road - Regular Room (incl B'fast) - Usually - INR 6k per night
Same Hotel - Regular Room ONLY - GP week - INR 33.6k per night

.

Trust me, I'm not kidding. My Company has Corporate rates with all the big names & ALL have declined to give Corporate Rates for that period

F1 Ticket costs - they will start selling end Jan & early Feb so are not keen on giving too many details now. I was told that the prices will range between INR 6k (which will probably be standing accommodation) & INR 33k (Pits grandstand).

I'm slowly but steadily waving the Singapore F1 GP goodbye! Really wanted to be there since it is the first night race in history but at these prices - dunno yet!
