DUBAI: The Federation Internationale de l’Automobile and Formula One Management have confirmed that Malaysia will host the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix at Sepang International Circuit from Oct. 2-4, between the Azerbaijan and Singapore Grands Prix. The weekend, which is subject to final agreements and official sign-off, including the approval of the World Motor Sport Council, will become the F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia.

A likely race slot would be between Baku on Sep 26 and Singapore on Oct 11, sources say.

Malaysia’s Sepang circuit, which hosted F1 from 1999 to 2017, could replace a Middle Eastern race, possibly between Baku and Singapore stops.

La gara si correrà dal 2 al 4 ottobre

Ongoing conflict in the Middle East has required a change to the calendar.

The race in Malaysia will slot in between the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on Sep 26 and Singapore on Oct 11.

Formula 1 is heading back to Malaysia for the first time in nine years.
