‘LOL’: Max Verstappen heard laughing at F1 Sepang software farce in radio message

During the formation lap of the Bahrain Grand Prix, Max Verstappen was heard laughing at a bizarre software glitch that caused several Formula 1 cars to slow down. The incident occurred due to wet conditions, which led to a one-hour delay before the race could begin.

The glitch affected multiple cars, including those of Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, with Hamilton's car stopping completely. The FIA responded by quickly developing a software patch to resolve the issue, allowing the race to continue after a 40-minute delay.
