F1: Teams Approve Singapore GP Lights
First-ever F1 night race happens next month.

Formula 1 teams have approved the lighting system for the first ever night race, to be staged in Singapore late next month.

Representatives of the teams inspected the circuit, located in the city-state's Marina Bay area, last month, the local Channel NewsAsia said.

Work on fully installing the system, which provides brightness suitable for F1's high-definition broadcasts, is currently taking place.

A total of 1500 projectors are to light up the street layout, ensuring that the circuit is nearly four times brighter than a typical football stadium at night.

The pan-Asian news channel is also reporting that 95 percent of the tickets for the first Singapore grand prix have already been sold, therefore almost guaranteeing a sell-out on September 28.
