The circuit has also hosted MotoGP Grand Prix races since 1999, and local authorities are therefore accustomed to organizing major events, which is an encouraging factor for the governing bodies. The Sepang circuit, located next to the airport in the capital Kuala Lumpur, hosted 19 F1 Grand Prix races between 1999 and 2017 and is therefore ready to once again host the most prestigious category of motorsport.
Furthermore, This race thus becomes the 23rd on the calendar, instead of the originally planned 24, since the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, scheduled for April in Jeddah, was also canceled and not relocated. However, uncertainty remains regarding the end of the season, as the last two races are scheduled for Qatar and Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) on November 29 and December 6. The F1 Bahrain Grand Prix, canceled in April due to the war in the Middle East, will be held in Malaysia in early October, Formula 1 and the International Automobile Federation (FIA) announced on Sunday.
