Night time racing at Qatar?

It's worth a try. Other sports play at night and I'm pretty sure the light set up will do the job.

Don't like the idea at all. They are trying the same in F1. Sadly it's all commercially driven to fit into Western daytime broadcast schedules so will probably go ahead.

Night time? If it's really going to be a night race, well I can't wait! It sounds fun and I'm sure everyone will enjoy it. As for the lights, I'm sure that they will fix them if there is a problem. The night time will be a test for some riders. The ones who have more skills will be in front! We have to remember that it's not just the bike and the tyres, it's also the rider. I really can't wait to see that one! :))

I think it will be good for the sport and will appeal to all the fan,s and team,s as it will be something different and interesting which can only be good for Moto GP.

Hi Cheryl I think it's gonna be a lot more fun for us to watch, than it is for them to ride. As others have pointed out - the endurance bikes do it (and look pretty cool) but the reg's have gotta be a pig for the gp crews to figure out! Oh well, they've got the winter break to figure it out - it should make for a pretty spectacular opener as night racing is pretty exciting. Can't wait!

There is no reason NOT to race at Qatar in the night. It is done all the time at Endurance events. However the whole point of Motogp is to go round the track quicker on two wheels then anything else possible. Motogp is about pushing the envelope to try new things. I'm sure the Endurance would welcome a "full" night time event, but the Motogp gang will dis miss it. The rules will have to change to much due to weight for the lights / starter kits / wheel change equipment. I do however think it would be cool to see a Motogp bike with lights going hell for leather at a track!
