Singapore F1 (Formula One) Night Race

This is Tyson again. -- so the much anticipated F1 race was last weekend here in singapore. I got tickets for the two older boys and myself to go on Saturday for qualifying and some other races like the Asia Porsche Carrera Cup. This F1 race is the fist time that they had a circuit in Singapore and also the worlds first night race -- they spent about 50 million USD on lighting along to light the track. We spent a good part of the day kicking around the track on Saturday. then on Sunday we got an invite to go view the race from a friends office building. We went down to the race track, with no tickets and watched the race from the 29th floor of the Shaw Building. The crazy part was that we got on the 29th floor then crawled out of a window and sat on a ledge to watch the race -- the boys were with me and there was no railing so is was a bit scary but it was a great view of the race. We could oversee about 1/3 of the total track.

Here are the boys on the side of the track -- we are only about 10 feet away from the cars as they go by. They are of course wearing earplugs because of the noise and got the tickets around their neck.
The boys got these fans for free and they automatically turned into weapons. they are using them as swords.
Here is some of the singapore skyline -- the Merlion is behind the boys (kinda small) but he is spitting water out of his mouth to protect the harbor. The bridge behind was part of the race track that the F1 cars went over. Plus the sword/fans.
This is the view from the 29th floor of the Shaw Building where we got see the F1 race. The real bright parts are the actual race track and the singapore skyline is behind.
