Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas is taking the scenic route while traveling to race for Cadillac in the Singapore Grand Prix.
Bottas is biking 217 miles from Malaysia to Singapore ahead of Sunday's race, according to BBC Sport's Adam Millington .
The Finnish driver and gravel biker has shared photos and videos from throughout the journey since departing last Sunday.
Bottas announced in August he had qualified for the UCI Gravel World Championships, although the championship race overlaps with the Singapore Grand Prix.
He began biking on his own last Sunday just hours after the completion of the Bahrain Grand Prix in the Malaysian town of Sepang, per Millington.
The 37-year-old is set to arrive in Singapore in time to speak to reporters Thursday, according to Millington.
Bottas lost his seat with Sauber in 2025 and served in a reserve role for Mercedes before signing with Cadillac ahead of the 2026 season.
Still without a point and with eight DNFs so far this season, Bottas is looking to bounce back in Singapore after spinning into gravel and retiring on the ninth lap of the Bahrain Grand Prix.
