Malaysia is reportedly set to host a Formula 1 Grand Prix on October 4, with an official announcement expected on Sunday. The race at the Sepang circuit is slated to take place between the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on September 26 and the Singapore Grand Prix on October 11.

The Malaysian event is being introduced to the calendar as a replacement for the Bahrain Grand Prix. The Bahrain race was called off earlier in the season in April, alongside a scheduled race in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

While Malaysia prepares to step in for October, Ferrari's home circuit of Imola has also emerged as another likely host for a Formula 1 race as the sport adjusts its schedule following earlier cancellations.
