Lando Norris under threat as FIA launches Bahrain Grand Prix investigationLando Norris is facing an investigation by the FIA following the Bahrain Grand Prix, where he was noted for erratic driving during a chaotic race. The incident occurred after a Safety Car was deployed due to Alex Albon's retirement, which led to further complications as George Russell also retired from the race. Norris's actions during this period resulted in him dropping out of the top ten, finishing ninth, a position now at risk pending the FIA's decision. The investigation into Norris is part of a broader scrutiny of the race, which also includes inquiries into Albon and Oscar Piastri, who witnessed the events. Meanwhile, Nico Hulkenberg is being investigated for a potential unsafe release. The race was ultimately won by Max Verstappen, marking his first victory of the 2026 season.

When is the next F1 race after the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia?Max Verstappen secured his first victory of the 2026 Formula 1 season at the Bahrain Grand Prix, which was held in Malaysia. The race was marked by chaotic wet-dry conditions, allowing Verstappen to lead Red Bull to a crucial win, while Andrea Kimi Antonelli continued to extend his championship lead with a second-place finish. George Russell faced disappointment as he retired from the race due to an engine failure, leaving him significantly behind in the championship standings. The next event on the Formula 1 calendar is the Singapore Grand Prix, scheduled for the weekend of 9-11 October at the Marina Bay Street Circuit.

Lando Norris brands farcical F1 scenes 'horrible' as chaos eruptsLando Norris expressed his discontent with the chaotic scenes during the formation lap of the Bahrain Grand Prix, labelling them as 'horrible'. The race faced a 40-minute delay, with multiple drivers, including Lewis Hamilton and Esteban Ocon, experiencing issues that led to a suspension of the start sequence and the deployment of red flags for nearly an hour. Despite the turmoil, Norris managed to race for points and finished ninth after a late scare involving his teammate Oscar Piastri. He highlighted that the incident was partly caused by George Russell's retirement, which led to sudden braking by other drivers. Norris reiterated his criticism of the electronic systems in the cars, suggesting they contributed to the farcical situation.
