SINGAPORE: Singapore will host the first Formula One night race next year.
The sport's governing body, FIA, has given the in-principle approval to Singapore to host the September 28 race under the floodlights.
Lighting trials have been conducted overseas to assess if a night race could be staged in Singapore.
Singapore had earlier said that a night race will be unique, different and allow the Singapore event to reach out to television audiences in Asia, Europe and the US.
Singapore would proceed with a night race only if the safety and operational requirements of all parties, including the FIA, FOA and Formula 1 teams, were fully met.
