Reuters: Bahrain circuit officials will test a new floodlight system this weekend as part of their plans to turn their 10th anniversary Formula One Grand Prix into a night race next year.
Bahrain International Circuit chief executive Salman bin Isa al-Khalifa said in a statement on Friday that a round of the world endurance championship at the circuit on Saturday and Sunday would test the first phase of the project.
Singapore currently hosts Formula One’s only full night race, with Abu Dhabi’s a day-to-night event with the sun setting during the race. A spokesman said Bahrain’s race would start after sunset.
