 Weekend Trip to Singapore | In September 2009 Bill and Anette took a long weekend trip to Singapore to experience the Singapore Grand Prix. The Singapore Grand Prix was originally held in the late 1960's and early 1970's before being restarted in 2008.The 2008 Singapore Grand Prix was the first Formula 1 race to be held at night. It was a unique experience to see these powerful cars racing around the streets of Singapore at night time.
Bill joined up with his friend Paul Rusch who was in town visiting from the USA. This was Bill's first Formula 1 race. Even with ear plugs in the roar of the race cars was deafening. See the short video clip below (taken from Bill's handphone so the quality isn't that good) to get an appreciation of the power of these cars.
Overall a very good weekend trip. |
