Formula 1 in Sepang: When are practice, qualifying & the race? All dates and the complete schedule for the Bahrain GP in Malaysia at a glance!
Formula 1 returns to Sepang for the first time since 2017, hosting the relocated Bahrain GP in Malaysia.
Before that, the circuit hosted an F1 race 18 times between 1999 and 2017.
Officially, the race continues to bear the title "Bahrain GP" with the addition "in Malaysia".
The track is characterized by a mix of fast sweeps and tight hairpins.
Heat and short, heavy tropical downpours will dictate the race action on the approximately 5.5-kilometer long track.
The track layout promises a spectacular race. Excellent overtaking opportunities arise mainly from the enormous track width of up to 22 meters, as well as long straights leading into heavy braking zones.
