Multiple outlets report that Formula 1 will stage the scheduled Bahrain Grand Prix at Malaysia’s Sepang Circuit in October. The race is described as a replacement for the Bahrain event, with the competition moved approximately 3,750 miles from Bahrain to Malaysia. Under the new location, the event will still carry Bahrain branding and is expected to be officially titled “Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia.” Free Malaysia Today and Jalopnik both state that Sepang will host the relocated race and that the official name will include Gulf Air sponsorship along with “Bahrain Grand Prix” and the Malaysia location qualifier. The reports do not add further detail beyond confirming the move, the timing in October, and the expected official designation. No conflicting information is presented across the sources regarding the event name or venue.
