Formula 1 officials are currently in discussions regarding the potential return of the Malaysian Grand Prix to the racing calendar as a replacement event for the 2024 season. The Sepang International Circuit is being considered as a stand-in venue should ongoing conflicts in the Middle East necessitate changes to the existing schedule.
The Sepang circuit previously hosted the Malaysian Grand Prix from 1999 until 2017. The event was removed from the Formula 1 schedule at that time due to concerns regarding rising hosting costs and sanctioning fees. If negotiations are successful, the circuit could return to the global racing calendar on short notice.
