Formula 1 is considering Malaysia as a potential host for the rescheduled Bahrain Grand Prix, with Imola as a backup if Qatar and Abu Dhabi cannot be staged. The decision stems from logistical concerns regarding the final rounds of the season.
The Formula 1 season finale may take place in Malaysia this year, according to sources. This comes as contingency planning is underway should the scheduled final two rounds in Qatar and Abu Dhabi not proceed as planned.
If both Qatar and Abu Dhabi are unable to host their respective races, the Italian circuit of Imola – home to Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari team – would be next in line to hold the season's concluding race. However, Malaysia is being considered for the rescheduled Bahrain Grand Prix. The source did not specify *why* Qatar or Abu Dhabi might be unable to stage their events.
The potential shift highlights the ongoing logistical challenges faced by Formula 1 in ensuring a complete and uninterrupted racing calendar. No further details regarding the feasibility of hosting in Malaysia, or specific reasons for the contingency planning, were provided.
