This will be the second night race
held at the Marina Bay Circuit after the inaugural event in 2008.
Consisting of 61 laps, run on a circuit of 5.067km, the track is
made up of public roads and features 23 corners, two of which will
be taken at speeds in excess of 100 mph.
Running in an anti-clockwise direction it is the only circuit
which crosses two bridges and travels under a grandstand.
Given that the race will take place at night, teams will face the
prospect of the track temperature being cooler than the air
temperature.
This could create slippery conditions for drivers. Over 1,500
light projectors, each with 2,000 watt white metal halide lamps,
will be used to illuminate the track.
A maximum down force track, it varies in width from three lane
highways to narrow barricaded straights. |
