Organisers of the Malaysian Grand Prix are expecting a huge rise in the number of fans attending this year’s race.
The start time has been brought forward an hour to avoid a repeat of last year, when a tropical storm and fading light cut short the event.
And with the 2010 grid featuring two teams with Malaysian links – the new locally backed Lotus and the Petronas-sponsored Mercedes – organisers are hoping to attract 40,000 more fans than last year.
Sepang track boss Mokhzani Mahathir said: "I expect a turnout of nearly 100,000 on the last day on Sunday. Last year, nearly 60,000 spectators turned up on the last day."
