Japanese Night Race In The Books?
We’ve all experienced the hype about the first ever Singapore F1 night race. Some of you might even have experienced it yourselves. We had planned on going to watch it but certain things came up that disallowed that possibility. We had to content ourselves on watching the events unfold on TV.
Here’s another bit of news to you F1 enthusiasts out there, though. It is rumored that the big boss of F1, Bernie Ecclestone, is planning on making the Japanese Grand Prix into a night race as well. BBC
has this report:
And asked if more floodlit races were planned, Ecclestone told BBC Radio 5 Live: “If we have more races in this part of the world, yes.
“We’re going to try to get Japan to do it. I hope when people see Singapore they realise it wasn’t a stupid idea.”
I am quite happy to hear this piece of news due to several things. For one, I know that a lot of people have always had this fascination for the country and its culture. For people who are interested in both the country and F1 racing, this turn of events is definitely a cause for celebration! Another reason is that we all know how technologically advanced Japan is. Perhaps it is even safe to say that they are the best when it comes to technology. If the Singapore night race was a success in many areas – including technology – can you just imagine how much better a night race in Japan would be?
