At this rate they might as well call it the "Formula One Night-time World Championship".

Like I said in the other thread about Silverstone, the organisers, drivers and teams should just turn up and do it in the afternoon behind Bernie's back.

I've never had any issue getting up early to see an F1 race. The twilight race(s) were less of a spectacle this year aswell.

If we get even more night time races, Singapore's unique spectacle will be just put into perspective and it'll just be the same old boring, Tilke street circuit which it is regardless.

this years race at Melbourne sucked. the sun is at a shitty position, you wait around the track all day for the race to start, its almost night time when its finishing, Ecclestone cares more for the tv fans than the ones at the actual event! its a duck up digital age we live in i tell ya!

Its a good thing I say. It means i dont have to watch the race during sleepy time, which is bernie's idea. Last time I spoke to him on the telephone I said its fine. we dont care if bud stay up late.
but honestly ... a night race in aussie works.

Actually I can't watch the Australian GP because it's in the day-time. Even on Sundays...

Oh,and a side point... I've finally caught up-to-date with modern technology by purchasing my first ever set-top box!

It means no more 11:45 races. I can now watch GPs at a reasonable time of of 9:30!

I missed the Brazillian GP because it was on at 2:45am and my family did not respect my wishes to be in bed at 7... They came over at 9pm!

about time you got one, OneHD is awesome! they have an hour pre show also!

[Big Azza]

Really???

Oh wow! I can't wait!

It's a shame I've waited until now. But I only just moved from Western Sydney up to Woy Woy. And in this place the previous tenant had foxtel and installed an tv cable coming through the wall... Reception is AWESOME!!!

No more rabbit-ears days....

Woy Woy? Thats almost as good a name as Wagga Wagga which is also in your state i might add

[Big Azza]

Us cockroaches...

Woy Woy is translated "Water Water" in Aboriginal dialect.

Wagga Wagga is translated "Crow Crow"...

Apparently it means there is a lot of crows in the Wagga. Anyways... too much history for one day.... But I like the Aboriginal Names in towns. It saves us from gay pommy names like "Petersham..."
