Sepang expects 100,000 three-day ticket sales for Bahrain GP

Sepang International Circuit anticipates selling 100,000 three-day tickets for the relocated Bahrain Grand Prix, with around 95,000 already sold and approximately 3,000 remaining. Notably, about half of the ticket purchasers are from outside Malaysia, indicating a strong international interest despite the short notice for the event.

The Bahrain Grand Prix was moved to Sepang after the original event was cancelled due to geopolitical tensions. Sepang has not hosted a Formula 1 race since 2017, and the circuit had to make significant upgrades to accommodate the event. Historically, ticket sales at Sepang peaked at 40,000 to 50,000, making the current sales figures particularly impressive.
