toyota-f1-singapore_0001Formula 1 takes a leap into the unknown with its first ever night race at the inaugural Singapore GP this weekend and teams face a daunting task to be at their peak for the race. Drivers wont exactly be racing in the dark as night is turned to day with some 1,500 projector lights lighting up the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Another factor that will play an important role in the race is the weather as September evenings tend to be wet this side of the world. Here’s two videos on how teams like Toyota and Mclaren prepare for the race as well as another video we have featured before on the track itself, we like.

think that mclaren's clip is a joke... there's no need for a spotlight for that singapore gp as the street circuit is lighted with lights that similar to daylight... but there'll be rain, expected by weather forecasts.... wet + dark, later teams "tu lan", repeat the boycott thingy like in Indianapolis, USA gp...

Weather forecast on Friday:
Scattered Thunderstorms (Day and Night)
