Two-time Formula One (F1) champion Fernando Alonso raced to victory in the world's first F1 Night Race in Singapore's Marina Bay Street Circuit on 28 September 2008.
Picture from The Straits Times: Fernando Alonso is the winner of First F1 Night Race
Despite a disastrous earlier qualifying round that placed him at Number 15 on the first F1 Night Race starting line-up, Fernando Alonso in his Renault race car used the right tactics, injected with a dose of good fortune, to win the inaugural Singapore Grand Prix.
The two-hour battle for F1 Night Race victory saw three F1 race car crashes, plenty of tight twists and turns on Singapore roads, with a disastrous self-inflicted drama in the Ferrari pit lane when early leader Felipe Massa sped off with a fuel hose attached to his F1 car.
With Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton on his tail, Fernando Alonso put his winner's instinct to good use and never gave the second-place and third-place finishers any chance to overtake him in the final laps.
It was a great Formula 1 Night Race with plenty of unforgettable drama that will surely whet viewers' appetite for more F1 action.
