I have a feeling the race will be run the opposite way with the cars passing under the grandstand from the back and coming out the front into the crowds view… safely.
Cool.

The unusual proximity of the crowd and the cars is obviously, if done incorrectly, a front page waiting to happen; but it is also, if done correctly, a recipe for the kind of interface that all tracks should strive for. Hopefully, the tracks of the future can find ways to place the spectators in…”spectacular” positions. Safety and numbers must be a major concern when locating grandstands, but surely not the ONLY concern.

Formula 1 is new to Singapore, but open wheel Formula races organizes as Singapore Grand Prix were regular feature in mid sixties to early seventies… But that was different century

The whole ticketing mess drove me mad and I did send “nice” email to the organizers just to make myself feel better. The major mistake the Singapore organizers made was hiring wrong ticketing company. Not sure where exactly they come from, but their “Milan and Florida offices worked overnight to solve the problems”.

This will hopefuly be a big lesson and wake up call for the organizers.

The news today was that RBS is planning to bring Williams car to Singapore in summer for some demo drive and also sort of track test.

Alternatively, not having enough computers to cope with ticket requests sounds like a good way of getting free headlines advertising the fact that tickets are on sale.

A bit like how Nintendo somehow managed to not have enough Wiis available for two consecutive Xmases…

I was thinking about this corner coupled with previous discussions here and elsewhere about racing at night in the rain dependent on an electricity supply to be able to see anything.

Bear in mind all of this is being run by people who couldn’t organise ticket sales and have never run a motor race of any description.

From the looks of it that part of the track is just after a tight corner, so presumably the cars will be travelling fairly slowly and the chances of such an accident happening quite low. No more likely than, say, two cars interlocking wheels on Hangar straight and one clearing the debris fence?

My point is that all racing tracks are dangerous to an extent, this one may be no more dangerous than the others (except that they’re racing at night, which is a whole other thing!)
