Bahrain Grand Prix

Formula One is officially making its long-awaited return to Malaysia, with the Sepang International Circuit set to host the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia from 2 to 4 October 2026.
The announcement marks the sport's first race in Malaysia since the Malaysian Grand Prix was removed from the calendar after the 2017 season due to rising hosting and licensing costs. While the country has remained a regular fixture on the MotoGP calendar, F1 fans have spent almost a decade hoping to see the world's premier motorsport series return to Sepang.
This time, however, Formula One's return comes under very different circumstances. Rather than reviving the Malaysian Grand Prix, Sepang will temporarily host the Bahrain Grand Prix, which has been relocated due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
One Of Formula One's Most Iconic Circuits
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7a70730410907718a32576ee093a6e9a796e40acd88c6387285c916589c4ddfa" />
For many Formula One fans, Sepang remains one of the sport's most memorable and technically demanding circuits.
Introduced to the calendar in 1999, the 5.5km circuit quickly earned a reputation for producing thrilling wheel-to-wheel racing, dramatic overtakes and unpredictable weather conditions. Its combination of long straights, sweeping corners and tropical downpours has created countless unforgettable moments throughout Formula One history.
Sepang also holds a special place in the hearts of Malaysian fans because of its long-standing association with PETRONAS and the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team. Since becoming title sponsor of the Mercedes team in 2010, PETRONAS has been synonymous with Formula One success, helping the team secure multiple Drivers' and Constructors' Championships.
Although Malaysia last hosted an F1 race in 2017, the circuit has maintained its FIA Grade 1 licence, allowing it to remain eligible to stage Formula One events at short notice.
Formula One President and CEO Stefano Domenicali described Sepang as a circuit that holds "a special place in Formula One history", adding that its return would provide an unforgettable experience for both fans at the venue and viewers around the world.
Why Is Bahrain's Race Being Held In Malaysia?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/daf940b3d367dd89440400aaf4c2a495896cc1ca580555a888a9f64d974d5a1b" />
Despite taking place at Sepang, the event will officially remain the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia.
The Bahrain Grand Prix was originally scheduled earlier in the 2026 season but was postponed after escalating regional conflict, including military strikes involving Iran, created security concerns across parts of the Middle East. The situation also led to the cancellation of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, forcing Formula One to revise its calendar.
Rather than cancelling the Bahrain race entirely, Formula One, the FIA, the Governments of Bahrain and Malaysia reached an agreement to relocate the event to Sepang while retaining Bahrain's title sponsorship and race identity.
The race will be held between the Azerbaijan Grand Prix and Singapore Grand Prix, helping Formula One preserve much of its original 2026 calendar while prioritising the safety of teams, officials and fans.
FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem said every possible option had been explored before the decision was made, with safety remaining the organisation's highest priority throughout the process.
The agreement was also made possible through close cooperation between the Malaysian and Bahraini governments, with Malaysia's readiness to host a major international sporting event on short notice receiving praise from Formula One officials.
Malaysia Only Needs RM16 Million For Circuit Upgrades
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6c3eb5e4de56423c2de6b752e25179ed0656251bad63aa0fe6d871124b5d04b0" />
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim revealed that Malaysia will not be paying the substantial Formula One hosting or registration fees previously required when the country staged the Malaysian Grand Prix.
Instead, the government's only expenditure will be approximately RM16 million, which will be used to maintain and upgrade the Sepang International Circuit to meet Formula One standards.
According to Anwar, Malaysia previously spent hundreds of millions of ringgit to host Formula One, while estimates to revive the Malaysian Grand Prix in recent years were said to be around RM300 million annually.
"This time, we are organising without paying registration fees. It is free," Anwar said.
He added that Malaysia was selected because of three key strengths: political stability, efficient administration and world-class infrastructure capable of hosting a global sporting event at short notice.
Ticket Sales Won't Be Managed By PETRONAS
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3b0c8611492218c87cc0dafdb5c81a179d8c198286c1e7f451d52ba9a81e0c94" />
Following the announcement, PETRONAS issued a clarification after many fans assumed the company would oversee ticket sales because of the circuit's name and its long-running partnership with the Mercedes Formula One team.
The national oil and gas company explained that while it holds the naming rights to the PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit, it is not the organiser of the Bahrain Grand Prix.
PETRONAS stressed that it does not manage, control or have access to ticket allocations, sales or distribution. Instead, all tickets will be handled solely by the event organiser through authorised sales channels.
Further ticketing information is expected to be announced closer to the event.
Anwar Promises More Affordable Ticket Options
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/069df0c88ac75309350d4c87c5603c1e7d142761412511fe8ccbb71b04cd01d0" />
One of the biggest concerns among Malaysian fans has been ticket prices, with many hoping Formula One's return will be more accessible than previous editions.
Responding to public requests for cheaper tickets, Anwar suggested that more affordable options would be made available.
When asked whether "Madani-priced" Formula One tickets could be introduced, the Prime Minister replied that it would be possible, although fans purchasing the lowest-priced tickets should not expect premium grandstand seats.
"God willing... but you won't be seated in the front-row seats. You'll have to sit a little further," he joked.
While official ticket prices have yet to be announced, the assurance has given many fans hope that attending Formula One at Sepang will be more affordable than in previous years.
With Formula One returning to one of its most iconic circuits after a nine-year absence, Malaysian motorsport fans will once again get the opportunity to witness the world's fastest racing series at Sepang&mdash;albeit under the banner of the Bahrain Grand Prix.

Super Junior's Yesung To Celebrate 10th Solo Anniversary With Kuala Lumpur Concert This November

Argentina's heartbreaking defeat to Spain in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final was followed by scenes of unrest in Buenos Aires, where clashes broke out between football fans and police near the city's iconic Obelisk monument.
Thousands of supporters had gathered across the Argentine capital to watch the final, hoping to witness Lionel Scaloni's side defend the World Cup title they won in 2022. However, Spain secured a dramatic 1-0 victory after Ferran Torres scored the winning goal in extra time, ending Argentina's hopes of back-to-back titles.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c42cb7e3ffe6c06de3ffcc5a528c00ae30214d5c41b504c6d92596713b166a83" />
While the atmosphere remained largely peaceful throughout the evening, celebrations quickly turned into chaos after the final whistle, with at least 15 people detained and several others injured during the unrest.
Violence Erupts At The Obelisk
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6d54c69ddcc1c5ab93589f4020662c71038b499657eec1c25308af5445e72ff2" />
The clashes took place at the Obelisk, one of Buenos Aires' most recognisable landmarks and the traditional gathering point for major football celebrations.
According to local reports, trouble began shortly before midnight after a group of supporters attempted to breach security barriers surrounding the monument.
The situation rapidly escalated as some individuals began throwing glass bottles, rocks and other objects at police officers.
Authorities responded with tear gas, water cannons and riot-control measures to disperse the crowd, while heavily equipped riot police moved through surrounding streets to restore order.
The confrontation reportedly lasted around 20 minutes before the crowds gradually dispersed.
Images circulating on social media showed streets littered with debris, damaged barricades and confrontations between officers and supporters. One widely shared photograph appeared to show a police officer kicking a fan lying on the ground, while another showed riot police advancing with shields and batons through the city centre.
At Least 15 Arrested, Several Injured
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e99b8a019cf31b12dbefe55ab8f41372212fc33972bf9a994d491850ab415791" />
Authorities confirmed that at least 15 people were detained following the disturbances.
Local media also reported that at least seven police officers sustained injuries during the clashes after being struck by bottles and other projectiles.
Several members of the public were also injured, including a man who reportedly suffered facial injuries after being kicked during the chaos and a woman who required medical treatment. Officials have not released further updates on their conditions.
Emergency medical teams were deployed throughout the city to respond to incidents linked to the large crowds.
According to reports, Buenos Aires' emergency medical service treated around 25 people during the World Cup final, with cases ranging from alcohol-related incidents and panic attacks to falls, cuts and injuries sustained during fights. Two people required hospital treatment.
Tempers Also Flared On The Pitch
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8f28115df8c3dc4f486c10ea7eee62c920760bc5e268e848e0cb2e424d652af6" />
The tension was not limited to the streets of Buenos Aires.
Argentina's frustration was evident during and after the final as disciplinary issues overshadowed the closing stages of the match. Midfielder Enzo Fern&aacute;ndez was sent off late in normal time, leaving Argentina with ten men heading into extra time.
Following the final whistle, emotions boiled over as Leandro Paredes became involved in an altercation with several Spanish players. The midfielder was shown a red card after lashing out at defender Eric Garc&iacute;a, while television footage also appeared to show further confrontations involving Nahuel Molina and members of Spain's squad.
&lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"&gt;&lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;🚨🥊 Full scenes after final whistle.&lt;a href="https://x.com/MickyJnr__?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@MickyJnr__&lt;/a&gt; 🎥 &lt;a href="https://t.co/ZXCvAFkHwy"&gt;pic.twitter.com/ZXCvAFkHwy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;mdash; Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) &lt;a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/2078994500978905168?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;July 20, 2026&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
Football pundits, including Alan Shearer, Gary Neville and Wayne Rooney, criticised Argentina's reaction after the defeat, saying the players should have accepted the result with greater sportsmanship.
President Milei Announces National Holiday
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0cd55f987fc2027abac8b09a5f71fa7163ebdced22495ed80ac72e02e65f6016" />
Despite the disappointment, Argentine President Javier Milei announced that the country would observe a national holiday to recognise the national team's achievements at the tournament.
He said the date of the holiday would be decided in consultation with the players and coaching staff, similar to the celebrations that followed Argentina's 2022 World Cup triumph.
Although the team fell short of retaining the trophy, Argentina reached a second consecutive World Cup final and finished as runners-up after another impressive tournament.
A Night Of Passion Overshadowed By Violence
The scenes in Buenos Aires reflected the immense passion football holds in Argentina, where the national team remains a source of enormous pride.
However, what began as a night of unity and support ended with violent confrontations that overshadowed an otherwise memorable World Cup final.
As investigations continue into the disturbances, authorities are expected to review the events surrounding the unrest while the footballing world reflects on a dramatic finale that crowned Spain as world champions for the second time in the nation's history.

Argentina Fans Clash With Police In Buenos Aires After World Cup Final Defeat To Spain

The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) will investigate allegations that personal information belonging to popular entrepreneur and content creator Khairul Aming was accessed and shared online without authorisation.
The issue gained attention after details believed to be linked to Khairul Aming&rsquo;s telecommunications account appeared on social media, raising concerns over customer data privacy and how confidential information could have been obtained by an unauthorised individual.
Khairul Aming, whose real name is Khairul Amin Kamarulzaman, first highlighted the matter after questioning how another person was able to access and publicly reveal details of his personal phone bill on Threads.
<blockquote id="ig-tp-DbBGo5-Gh7m" class="text-post-media" style="background: #FFF; border-radius: 16px; max-width: 650px; margin: 1px; min-width: 270px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px); border: 1px solid #00000026;" data-text-post-permalink="https://www.threads.com/@khairulaming/post/DbBGo5-Gh7m" data-text-post-version="0">

</div>
</blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://www.threads.com/embed.js"></script>

A social media user had claimed to know information regarding the entrepreneur&rsquo;s telecommunications account, including an alleged outstanding bill of RM498 and details relating to additional digital purchases linked to the account. The post also included comments about his account status, which sparked discussions among social media users.
However, Khairul Aming stressed that the amount of the bill was not the main concern. Instead, he questioned how someone outside the company could obtain and disclose his private account information.
&ldquo;What is frightening is how you could know my phone bill details and then post them publicly. This is my personal data,&rdquo; he said in response to the post.
He also explained that he usually makes advance payments for several months, which may have resulted in him not realising that his balance had been used up.
The incident has since raised broader concerns among Malaysians about the security of personal information held by companies and whether customer data can be accessed without proper authorisation.
Fahmi Orders MCMC Probe Into Alleged Data Breach
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6365c3e4ffc87ea2bc007af33cf7199da7915c99c9b7a58efa323f8e3faa8ca2" />
Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil has instructed MCMC to obtain a full report on the alleged leak, describing the matter as a serious concern.
Speaking after officiating the International Regulatory Conference (IRC) 2026 in Kuala Lumpur, Fahmi said the complaint suggested that an individual may have gained access to information they were not authorised to view, including customer details or internal systems belonging to a telecommunications company.
&ldquo;This is quite worrying because the complaint I read on Threads gives the impression that an individual who should not have access to personal information may have obtained access to a telco company&rsquo;s system or inventory,&rdquo; he said.
Fahmi added that he had already met representatives from the telecommunications company involved, who informed him that they were contacting Khairul Aming directly regarding the matter.
He said MCMC would conduct further checks to determine how the alleged breach occurred and whether any offences had been committed.
The minister also urged members of the public who experience similar incidents involving unauthorised disclosure of personal information to submit reports to MCMC.
He said official complaints would allow authorities to collect records and evidence needed for further investigation and enforcement action.
Sharing Personal Data Without Consent May Be An Offence
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9e6f8c377f3ac2a0e42790f9e5886d4a3233497c7f9f9f4460efa08ebaa913a6" />
Fahmi reminded the public that the unauthorised disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) may be an offence under Malaysia&rsquo;s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).
He said action could be taken against individuals or organisations found to have intentionally shared personal information without permission.
Affected individuals were also encouraged to lodge both police reports and complaints with MCMC to assist authorities in carrying out investigations.
&ldquo;Reports are important so that we have records, information and evidence to enable follow-up action,&rdquo; Fahmi said.
The reminder comes as concerns continue to grow over personal data protection, especially as more services rely on storing large amounts of customer information.
Maxis Says Investigation Found It Was An Isolated Incident
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fmaxis%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0ePQc5YQm838Q4mVT2TttBY43eZSCiitmJPtKKNWN1c5e3X5z6PNKx6fxehxpKQ8Al&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="296" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Following the allegations, telecommunications provider Maxis confirmed that it had launched an internal investigation into the matter.
The company said its initial findings suggested that the incident appeared to be isolated. It added that it had identified the individual linked to the alleged disclosure and would take immediate action.
&ldquo;We are reaching out to the customer regarding this matter. We have identified the individual linked to this incident and are taking immediate action, including pursuing legal proceedings,&rdquo; Maxis said.
The company also apologised for the incident and reaffirmed its commitment to protecting customers&rsquo; privacy and safeguarding personal information.
Public Raises Concerns Over Data Security
The alleged leak has sparked wider discussions about personal data protection and the responsibilities of companies that manage sensitive customer information.
Many social media users questioned how private account details could potentially be accessed by unauthorised individuals, while others called for stronger safeguards to prevent similar incidents.
The case has also highlighted the importance of public awareness when it comes to protecting personal information and reporting suspected breaches.
MCMC is expected to provide further updates once its investigation into the alleged data leak has been completed.

DAY6’s Young K To Bring First Solo ‘YOUNGEST’ Tour To Malaysia In March 2027

Thousands of football fans gathered at Dataran Merdeka to watch Spain defeat Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final, creating an electric atmosphere in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. However, the celebrations were overshadowed by the large amount of rubbish left behind after the event, prompting criticism from authorities and the public alike.
Images of the iconic square covered in plastic bottles, disposable cups, food wrappers, plastic bags and other waste quickly spread across social media, sparking a fresh debate about public cleanliness and civic responsibility in Malaysia.
DBKL Disappointed By The Aftermath
Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) expressed disappointment over the condition of Dataran Merdeka after more than 25,000 football fans gathered for the live screening.
In a statement shared on Facebook, DBKL acknowledged the enthusiasm shown by supporters but stressed that public celebrations should not come at the expense of shared spaces.
The city council reminded the public that while its workers would clean up the site, maintaining the cleanliness of Kuala Lumpur should not always depend on government personnel.
DBKL also described Dataran Merdeka as a symbol of the nation's history and dignity, saying the way people leave such places reflects how much they value them.
"A great city is not judged only by the crowds it attracts, but by the condition in which it is left after they have gone," the council said.

Ministers Condemn Littering
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2a6fd6ba59fbcc0f4bc762c64d1b7bf295b9d6d0e1c2e97cd0b4fbd507fe670a" />
Federal Territories Minister Hannah Yeoh also voiced her disappointment, thanking DBKL workers who remained behind to clean the area while urging Malaysians to take greater personal responsibility.
She said disposing of rubbish properly should be considered a basic courtesy, adding that the values of Malaysia Madani extend beyond government services to include citizens doing their part to care for public spaces.
"Kuala Lumpur is our home. Don't litter your own home and expect someone else to clean up after you," she said.
Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming echoed similar sentiments, questioning why littering continues to be a widespread problem despite decades of public education.
In a social media post, he described the scene as saddening and urged Malaysians to show greater respect for their surroundings, using the hashtags #MalaysiaBersih and #RancakkanMadani.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Negara kita dah Merdeka hampir 70 tahun. Semua orang ada pergi sekolah. Tolong tanya : Sampai bila kita nak erti jaga kebersihan? Sampai hati buang sampah merata tempat dan tanpa segan silu?

Public Questions Planning And Enforcement
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6a8ff1b87a1d2e47214855d1c76e1db93149278cb1402839f6133f1684f7d514" />
While many Malaysians condemned those responsible for leaving rubbish behind, others argued that the issue also highlighted shortcomings in event planning.
Some questioned whether enough rubbish bins had been provided around the venue, while others called for stronger enforcement of anti-littering laws during large public gatherings.
Several social media users pointed out that littering at major celebrations has become a recurring problem, arguing that authorities should deploy more enforcement officers to issue fines on the spot.
Malaysia's anti-littering laws already allow offenders to be fined up to RM2,000, with certain cases also carrying mandatory community service. However, many online questioned why enforcement appeared absent despite the large crowd at one of the country's most prominent public spaces.
Others suggested introducing entry fees or refundable deposits for future public viewing events to encourage visitors to dispose of their rubbish responsibly.
Alam Flora Clarifies Its Role
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Falamflorasdnbhd%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0Xpowa1X5uzKoLZxcEr6j93ALLeGfoP84TxPCiZb7AVUgmdH7hWvAv3rwgHL6DckAl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="792" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Following the circulation of photos online, waste management company Alam Flora also clarified its responsibilities after some social media users questioned why the field remained littered.
The company explained that its cleaning crews had carried out waste collection, road sweeping and cleaning works on surrounding roads, pavements and paved public areas immediately after the event.
However, it said that grassy areas and locations beneath temporary tents do not fall within its cleaning scope, with those areas instead handled by the relevant authorities.
Calls For Better Public Behaviour
The incident has once again highlighted the challenge of maintaining cleanliness during large-scale public events.
While many praised DBKL workers for their efforts in restoring Dataran Merdeka, the overwhelming sentiment online was that public attitudes need to improve.
Authorities reiterated that Malaysians should be free to celebrate sporting occasions enthusiastically, but that freedom should never include treating public spaces as disposable.
As thousands gathered to celebrate one of football's biggest nights, many believe the lasting image should not have been the piles of rubbish left behind, but rather a reminder that civic responsibility is just as important as national pride.
