Malaysia Set for F1's First Wet Race in 2026

Formula 1 is set to hold its first wet-weather race of the 2026 season in Malaysia, as the sport approaches its 16th round without rain-affected action under the new regulations.

Despite several rain threats during the 2026 season, Formula 1 has yet to witness a wet-weather race or session under the new regulations. Malaysia has been identified as the ideal venue to host this historic event, with the FIA having addressed initial safety concerns through regulatory changes.

The decision comes after careful consideration of weather patterns and circuit characteristics that make Malaysia particularly suitable for wet-weather racing, potentially providing the dramatic conditions fans have been waiting for under the updated ruleset. sos-zagle.org.pl
