Despite the fact that organisers of the Malaysian Grand Prix will ask for a meeting with Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone to talk about the start hour of the race, it looks like Mr. E. wants a twilight race at Sepang next year as well as the later start hour attracts more European visitors.

Bernie Ecclestone said in an interview with 'autosport': "I don't see anything wrong with the start time, we just didn't know about the rain. If we had started at 2pm then it would have rained as well."
