F1: Australian GP sticks to 5pm start

Australian GP sticks to 5pm start By Jonathan Noble Friday, February 4th 2011, 11:54 GMT The Australian Grand Prix will stick to its 5pm start time this season, despite the FIA having considered last year that it would bring the race forward because conditions were too dark for the 2010 race. A number of drivers complained to the governing body after the Melbourne race last year about poor visibility during the early evening running, and the FIA's own light tests had indicated that it was below safety limits laid down for night races. Those factors made it likely that the start time would be moved forward to avoid any problems this year, but the FIA confirmed on Friday that the race will begin at the same 5pm slot Related posts:
