2008 – The Singapore Grand Prix is held as Formula One's inaugural night race, with Fernando Alonso winning the event. Almost a year later it was revealed that Alonso's team-mate Nelson Piquet Jr. had been ordered to crash his car to help bring out the safety car and give Alonso the advantage and win.
A newlywed couple say they have been dragged into a bitter war of words after hotel bosses who hosted their big day accused them of running up a £1,550 bill for their wedding reception - and running off without paying.
Clare Nattrass and Joanne Robinson say they will pay their bill, but they want £200 taken off because their miserable wedding breakfast buffet didn't include ribs or mini burgers - and it was whipped away by over zealous hotel staff after just half an hour, before some of their 31 guests had the chance to tuck in.
The couple say the row escalated to such an extent that they had to call police to mediate after they felt threatened by hotel staff at their home.

FIFA: Road to World Cup 98 (commonly abbreviated to FIFA 98) is a football simulation video game developed by EA Canada and released by Electronic Arts in 1997. It is the fifth game in the FIFA series and the second to be in 3D on the fifth generation of video game consoles. A number of different players were featured on the cover, including David Beckham in the UK, Roy Lassiter in the United States, Mexico and Brazil, David Ginola in France, Raúl in Spain and Portugal, Paolo Maldini in Italy, and Andreas Möller in Germany. FIFA 98 was the last FIFA game released for the Sega Genesis, Sega Saturn and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
Mikhail Vladimirovich Vorobyov (Russian: Михаил Владимирович Воробьёв; April 7, 1962 – July 1, 2002), known professionally as Mikhail Krug (aka Michael the Circle) (Russian: Михаил Круг), was a Russian singer. Krug was one of the most popular singers of the style of music known as blatnaya pesnya or Russian chanson, a genre of music that has been popular in Russia since the beginning of the twentieth century.
Grant McCann played 12 matches for Northern Ireland during his time at Scunthorpe, a club record. McCann scored three goals at international level - a tally also reached by New Zealander David Mulligan. George Thomas was the most recent Scunthorpe player to make a full international appearance, for Wales against Trinidad and Tobago on 20 March 2019, during a season-long loan spell from Leicester City.
Newly appointed boss Slaven Bilic says he can be a success at Watford and insists the Championship club "definitely don't want to sack" him.
The 54-year-old became the 16th permanent managerial appointment made at Vicarage Road since the Pozzo family took ownership of the club in 2012.
The ex-West Ham boss replaced Rob Edwards at Watford on Monday.
"Not just at Watford but in the world of football, you have to deserve time, you have to buy time," Bilic said.
"How you buy time is with good work and the results.
"Do you think they appoint the manager to sack them? No, they appoint the manager to have success.
"Even this situation, when everyone is talking about Watford sacking managers - I'm number 16 or 17 or whatever - I'm in a good position because they definitely don't want to sack me. They want me to do good."

Manager Derek McInnes has signed a new contract with Kilmarnock, tying him to the club until 2026.
McInnes replaced Tommy Wright in January, agreeing an 18-month deal, and secured promotion to the Scottish Premiership by winning the second tier.
Killie visit the 51-year-old's former club Aberdeen on Saturday.
The ex-Bristol City and St Johnstone boss said he had "known for a while that Kilmarnock is the place that I wanted to commit my future to".
And he added on Kilmarnock's website: "Thanks to the backing of the board and the supporters, the club has come a long way since we joined forces in January and I'm looking forward to the next stage of our journey."
Managing director Phyllis McLeish commented: "Derek is a vital part of our projected growth and with his guidance we believe, that in time, we'll have built a much stronger Kilmarnock for our supporters and the next generation of Killie fans."
Arsenal play their home games at the Emirates Stadium in Islington, while Tottenham Hotspur are based at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the neighbouring borough of Haringey. The two stadiums are 4 miles (6.4 km) apart. Until 2006, Arsenal played their home games at the Highbury Stadium and until 2017, Tottenham used White Hart Lane before relocating temporarily to Wembley Stadium. In 2019, Tottenham returned home to their newly constructed Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, built on the ground of the former White Hart Lane.
