Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated that a decision regarding Malaysia's potential hosting of a Formula One race this year will be announced on Sunday. The race could take place in October, with Malaysia being considered as a replacement for the Bahrain Grand Prix due to schedule disruptions caused by regional conflicts.
The announcement reflects ongoing discussions about re-establishing Malaysia as a host for major international motorsport events, with officials assessing logistical and operational readiness for such a high-profile race.
