Stand out moments from the Malaysian GP

The Malaysian Grand Prix is set to return in 2026, marking the end of a nine-year hiatus. The event will take place at the Sepang circuit, which has a rich history in Formula 1, including a unique situation where it will host the Bahrain GP due to ongoing regional conflicts. The race is scheduled for October 2-4, 2026, and will be remembered for its dramatic past.

Throughout its history from 1999 to 2017, the Malaysian GP produced several memorable moments. Highlights include Eddie Irvine's controversial victory in 1999, Kimi Raikkonen's first win in 2003, and the 2009 race where half points were awarded due to severe weather conditions. These events showcase the unpredictability and excitement that the Sepang circuit has brought to Formula 1.
