"Singapore anchors our Asian strategy," he said at the All That Matters conference, "it is the signature race for Asia.

"This is the marquee race and our goal is to renew the contract," he added. "It is certainly a race we are proud of. Singapore is one of the gateways into Asia and it's incredible story of growth in the last 50 years had captures the world's attention.

"We are actively engaged with our partners in Singapore, our goal is to reach a new deal. We have a great relationship with our partners, a deal has not been concluded but discussions are still ongoing."
