The Singapore Grand Prix held at the new Marina Bay Street Circuit was the 15th round of the 2008 FIA Formula One World Championship and was also the first night-time event in Formula One history. The timing of the night event meant that it could be broadcast live at a convenient time for EuropeanTV audiences.The track was also illuminated by a series of projectors which adapt their output to match the shape of the course.

This Formula One's first night race, was won by Spanish driver Fernando Alonso of the Renault F1 team on 28 September 2008.


I thank God for the apportunity to see this race in my own country..................................
