The 2022 W Series Singapore round was the final round of the 2022 W Series, which took place at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, Singapore.[1] The event was an undercard to the 2022 Formula One World Championship round at the same circuit.

Originally scheduled to be held at the Suzuka International Racing Course, the event was relocated due to "unforeseeable operational challenges".[2] [3] The round was planned to be the sixth of eight in the 2022 championship, before all subsequent rounds were cancelled due to financial issues.[4] This was the only W Series event to be held in Asia, and ultimately the last the championship held before going into administration.
