    Then I checked the date ?

    The top story on www.crash.net right now is to the effect that Capirossi and others are trialling riding the Qatar track at night. This to combat the extreme heat sometimes experienced there. It would also hide the fact that there are virtually no spectators present at the track.

    Then I thought "Ahh you won't get me, I know it's April the first.."

    When I checked though the story was datelined March 31st.

    Maybe there is something new under the sun.

    MotoGP in the dark? Well, I guess it will be spectacular when there is a bin.

    Ummm I think they were planning on using lights. Considering the lights required to light a Super 14 rugby ground the set up for 3.? K of track would cost a bomb. I guess they've got plenty...

    It's all about creating a spectacle, NASCAR does it, not sure how long Daytona is but it'd be a fair way.
