Thursday, September 18th, 2008
The 2008 FORMULA 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix which start from 26 to 28 September 2008 is not only making history by having the first-ever Formula 1 race at night but also for introducing electronic flag displays which traditionally waved by marshals to communicate with drivers for the past five decades.
The hi-tech electronic DigiFlag display is similar to units used to guide pilots at the runways of major airports. The DigiFlags will display the different flag colors more effectively at the night race because of the brightness of the display boards.
The 2008 FORMULA 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix street circuit will be using the roads around the Marina Bay area. The street circuit also marks the first ever street race in Asia which makes it another history to Asia’s Formula 1 race.
