MotoGP: Floodlights at Sepang…

Floodlighting has been installed at the Sepang Internation꧃al Circuit, raising꧒ speculation that the Malaysian circuit may one-day consider switching its MotoGP event from day to night.

Official information about the lighting system will be announced in August, but it seems it will initia🌺lly be for track day - or rather track night - use, plus some racing.

Championships such as Asian F3 ൩and F4 SEA single-seaters have already 🍒held private tests under the new Sepang floodlights.

Floodlighting has been installed at the Sepang International Circuit, raising speculation that the Malaysian circuit may one-day consider switching 🗹its MotoGP event from day to night.

Official information about the lighting🧸 system will be announced in August, but it seems it will initially be for track day - or rather track night - use, plus some racing.

Championships such as Asian F3 and F4 SEA single-seaters have already held private tests unde🅘r the new Sepang floodligh𒀰ts.

However, it is not thought the current level of li🔥ghting would meet the highest FIA/FIM circuit regulations.

For example, some of the gravel traps would need more illumination, but such additional lighting would be a relatively small task compared with the work alread✅y done.

🙈Funding for the Sepang lighting project is thought to have been available due to the decision to drop the costly F1 even𓃲t.

Losail is currently MotoGP's only night race.
