I think overall is going to cost about £2500-3000 for the two of us

That would be for a two week hol to thailand and flights/accommodation and tickets in singapore too

Red Bull driver Mark Webber agreed the safety of the drivers must be absolutely guaranteed before night-racing could be allowed to make its debut.

F1 cars do not have lights and so the circuit would have to be brilliantly lit for visibility purposes.

"The power of the lights you would need to artificially light the place for visibility for the drivers, flag marshalling and other tasks would be enormous," Webber said.

"I think you could do it, but then there is a question of the rain or a blackout that could embarrass you if don't do your homework.

There's no way they'd go ahead if it wasn't safe.
