The Singapore Gp In Numbers

It's almost time for the Singapore Grand Prix. As we draw closer to the on-track action, we decided to crunch some numbers for this special race. Did you know that the lighting used at the circuit is four times brighter than conventional lighting used at sports stadiums? Find out more below…

 

  • % full throttle = 45.5 %
  • Longest distance in metres on full throttle (where if applicable) = 640m between T5 & T7
  • Highest g-force experienced, where and for how long = 2.7G @ T22/23 for 2.5 seconds
  • % of the lap spent braking = 20%
  • Highest apex speed & which corner = 280kph @T6
  • Lowest apex speed & which corner = 60kph @ T13
  • Top speed & where = 300kph at the braking point for T7
  • Number of gear changes per lap = 80
  • The first night race in F1's history made its debut in 2008.
  • 4: The number of Grands prix

  • What is the point of a Lotus these days?

    I have recently changed my Daily from a dirty diesel to an electric.  It struck me that the 0-60 times were almost identical, possibly quicker, to the Exige so my thought was, if comfortable family cars with suitcase room are now performing so well, are our cars becoming obsolete? Has the acceleration potential of EV’s made traditional sports cars meaningless? In an era where electric motor torque is rewriting the rules of straight‑line acceleration, it’s easy to forget what “fast” use

    LOTUS Action Camera Mod for rear view mirror

    Hi, my name is Marco and I'm from Liverpool, I'm new to this forum and new to Lotus. Towards the end of last year I started to get that itch of wanting a sporty fun car again (I had owned a couple of Mk4 Supras between 2000 & 2009) I was looking for a car that was not too big as it needed to fit into my narrow garage so I could hook it up to a trickle charger as it was not going to be a daily driver.

I have also created a Facebook page called “Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)” containing images of its progress pre and post purchase.

    Newbie question

    As the title suggests , a newbie query. I have just bought an S2 Elise , 2007 with the Toyota 1ZZ power unit in ‘ touring spec’. That means electric windows, a radio and , err, not sure what else. Anyway, that is not the subject of the query. The car is blue with a cream interior. The latter I don’t plan to keep. In fact , already bought some equivalent second hand door cards in black and am looking hard at a pair of Corbeau LE seats . So, first part of my query centres on those Corbeau seats. A
