Traditional in the sense we have a single race of a significant distance.
Surely if they wanted a Twenty/20 style format, something like the old 3x20mins format under lights fits the bill perfectly

If it's "made for TV" then it goes against the grain if they are having what is in effect the usual Sunday "Supersprint" mini-enduro, just running it under lights... I'd have thought something like the old 3x20mins format is more attractive for a made-for-TV spectacular?
I personally love the race format they are suggesting, I wish they'd do it at every round because i like having one race and one winner from a weekend (Just like F1, MotoGP, NASCAR Cup Series etc..) and I like night racing...... but as a motor racing enthusiast I wouldn't have thought i'm the type of person they are trying to attract, the way this event has been spoken of until now anyway?
