Vvroooom!!!!
State of Being: The Race is On!
Yes! The Singapore Grand Prix, Formula One racing’s first-ever night race, is finally here this weekend! The all-new 5.067-kilometre Singapore street circuit, venue for this weekend’s night race, looks like being one of the slowest, but most exciting, of the season, with teams likely to run with high downforce and projected lap times in the 1m 45s region. [Read more on the facts & figures of The Singapore Grand Prix here]
Amidst the F1 publicity everywhere, I can never fathom what is so exciting about the event and why would someone pay as much as S$1,500 per night! to stay at a hotel just so that he can view the F1 race from the room. That is, until I personally witness the racing cars, with their roaring engines doing their practice session this afternoon from our old office!!!

I must admit I did feel an adrenaline rush at that very moment when I saw the racing cars wheezing down the circuit and round the bend at amazing lightning speed. Even from where we were, at level 5 of Swissotel The Stamford hotel, it was still extremely LOUD!!!
Be sure to stay tuned for the live telecast of the Qualifying round tmr and the Finals on Sunday on Channel 5. Better still, go down to City Hall and experience the excitement up close and personal! Afterall, it has been 40 over years now since the last F1 race took place in Singapore in the 1960s!
