Returning as the Official Champagne Partner of Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2026, Moët & Chandon celebrated moments of togetherness and victory, as it offered front-row seats to the racing action at Moët Club and exclusive celebratory experiences across the city
The chequered flag might mark the end of a Formula 1 race, but the moments that follow are just as memorable. From the anticipation of watching the action unfold on the track to the champagne celebrations on the podium, Moët & Chandon has long been part of the sport’s most celebratory moments. So much so that the sight of a victorious driver raising a jeroboam has become inseparable from Formula 1, embodying the precision, perseverance and teamwork behind every win. With a glass of champagne in hand, a toast transforms an individual achievement into a celebration shared by all.
This year, Moët & Chandon brought that spirit beyond the podium and into the heart of Singapore. Returning as Official Champagne Partner of the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2026 from October 9 to 11, as part of LVMH’s 10-year global partnership with the sport, the maison was part of the race weekend’s defining moments, from the thrill of the track to the celebrations that followed, extending the spirit of Formula 1 across the city.

At the centre of it all was the Moët Club, set on the terrace of the National Gallery Singapore, which offered a commanding vantage point over the trackside action. The club set the mood for race weekend with signature F1 moments, from an iconic Formula 1 podium where guests could recreate a winner’s celebration to a heritage wall displaying bottles signed by past Grand Prix champions. Among the Friends of the House soaking it all in were actress and host Anne Curtis, Thai actor and model Bible Wichapas Sumettikul, and Singaporean personalities Willabelle Ong and Elvin Ng.
When the racing was done, the party moved to Amber Lounge, the Official F1 After Party presented by Moët & Chandon, at Clifford Pier at The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore. Two nights of champagne and entertainment brought the weekend to a close. Welcoming guests and Friends of the House alike to raise a glass in a shared, citywide moment, the maison turned race week into a collective celebration, true to its belief that every victory is best enjoyed together.

While Moët & Chandon’s connection to Formula 1 is legendart, the tradition began in 1950 at the Reims Grand Prix, when Frédéric Chandon de Briailles spontaneously offered a bottle to the race winner. That single gesture gave rise to a timeless ritual that endures to this day: the celebratory jeroboam, an emblem of victory that pays tribute to past and present winners.
Today, a rare reserve of these jeroboams is safeguarded in the maison’s historic cellars in Épernay before making its way to Grand Prix circuits around the world. Signed by race winners and shared with their teams on the podium, each bottle embodies the joy of victory and the spirit of celebration. Bearing the signatures of champions, these jeroboams also carry the stories of victories past. More than a symbol of success, they connect generations of drivers through a tradition that continues to define Formula 1’s most celebrated moments.
Beyond the podium ritual, Moët & Chandon and Formula 1 share a commitment to precision, excellence and human mastery. The exacting decisions made in the cockpit find a parallel in the craftsmanship behind each champagne, while the dedication of racing teams mirrors the expertise and judgement of the maison’s cellar master.
In 2026, Moët & Chandon continues to honour this connection through every stage of the post-race ritual. From Parc Fermé, where the teams behind each victory take their moment in the spotlight, to the Cooldown Room, where drivers reflect on the race, each step builds towards the podium. As the champions make their way towards the podium, anticipation gives way to celebration.
