Singapore Formula 1 Street Circuit Model

Speed TV have an impressive computer simulation of the new Singapore Formula 1 Street Circuit. Next weekend it will host the inaugural Singapore Grand Prix and Formula 1 night race. The start is at 8pm local time with the cars racing under artificial light; 3.2 million Watts illuminating the 5km circuit!

The entire track will be fitted with nearly 1,500 lighting projectors and will be powered by 12 twin-power generators. An overall average of about 3000lux levels is required to illuminate the circuit which is enough to meet High Definition Television broadcast standards. As a result, the track will be almost four times brighter than a typical stadium.
