F1 could do without this. But if the rule applies to one team it applies to them all. On a side note, I'm a bi pissed off with the 10 year engine development freeze, and slightly intrigued by the night race next season. Title: Here we go again...

They can't even race in heavy rain, so how the hell are they going to be able to see in a night race. All the lights will do is make a blur travelling at 200 mph. Is the indian gp happening next year or the year after? See williams appointed that nakajima bloke as second driver to try and improve on mark wurz last season. Doh Title: Here we go again...

I know they'll be doing more than just giving the cars headlights but they'll have to use a ell of a lot of lights to make it feaseable. Ah well, we'll have to wait and see Title: Here we go again... Post by: Batch on Thursday, November 8, 2007, 15:32:50 I doubt the cars will have any lights! Well maybe the standard wet weather ones. They will just floodlight the circuit to death. It's a street race which apart from novelty of it it being 'dark' will probably be boring as fuck.....unless......floodlight failure!

Actually scrap that. They should play Bomb Jack. Title: Here we go again... Post by: Sippo on Thursday, November 8, 2007, 15:57:40 Outrun?
Title: Here we go again... Post by: Gelbfüßler on Thursday, November 8, 2007, 19:03:35 The Night Races in the BTCC in 1999-2000 were absolutely quality. It will be an awesome spectacle, less about the challenge of dark conditions, more about how good it looks. Glow-in-the-dark sponsors and the reflection of floodlights on F1 cars will be amazing, really looking forward to it if it happens.
