We had tickets for the Saturday qualifying session. The first Singapore F1 GP and the first ever GP run under lights. And we were here!!! We arrived through Gate 6 at about 5:30 pm, no queue at all, magic. The view cross Marine bay was amazing. The big grand stand can be seen on the left of picture.
Some dude was tootling around with his flash boat, looked great with the Singapore
Flyer as a back drop. Tickets were available for the
Flyer but a bit out of our pocket I'm afraid.
Gate 6 is at the end of the Esplanade, Anderson Bridge end, at Turn 13. The bridge is the narrowest part of the
circuit at 8
mts. The rest of the
circuit is surprisingly wide.
As we arrived the Porsche
Carrera Cup Asia qualifying session got under way. Gave me a chance to practice shooting fast moving cars. Not, easy to get a clear image. Apart from the safety barrier wire mesh being the object of the camera's auto-
focus, keep the camera still and the car has exited the frame before you have pressed the shutter.
Head on, as these cars are, is less of a problem. To get an idea of the cars speeds, these three shots were taken in less than 1 second. Fast.
