Makes more sense it being a normal racetrack as opposed tp a street track and its a good idea, and Webber was spot on in his interview "it will be the same but the background will be dark"
if it happens it happens but it doesnt really bother me, these night races.

I quite like the idea of night racing, on an actual circuit like Sepang I reckon it will work well. A 1 pm start time for UK too...

Yes, should be a lot easier to do in a 'static' environment where lights can be permanent. Champ Car runs at night, doesn't it?

Nah Champ Car used to run at night, not any more.

Indy Car however has about 4 races under the lights, Miami, Kenkucky, Nashveille and Richmond. Mind you they are on ovals - it looks spectactular. :8

Agreed it looks brilliant, it is about the perfect venue for a night race. More money for Bernie too. >:(

By the looks of it we'll have the whole calendar made up of night races by 2015. [lol]

I wouldn't mind, change is good.

Yes maybe, except for maybe the British GP as Bernie doesn't like that race. [lol]
