Rosberg Drives Singapore

About This Video

Formula One travels east this week for the eagerly anticipated Singapore Grand Prix. The second of two new tracks to make their debut on the calendar and the fourth street circuit of the year, round 15 of the 2008 season heralds a new era in the sport as, for the first time ever, a Grand Prix, together with its qualifying and practice sessions, will all be contested at night under a floodlit track.

Not only, therefore, will the teams have to contend with a new circuit, but also face the challenges of racing at night. In order to prepare for the demands that lie ahead, AT&T Williams drivers Nico Rosberg and Kazuki Nakajima, together with their race and data engineers, have been working tirelessly in the build up to this race on the team’s state-of-the-art simulator. Normally kept as much under wraps as the wind tunnels, the engineering department relaxed protocol this week to allow us behind the scenes while Nico completed his first laps of the 5.067km track.
