2026年巴林大奖赛为何移师马来西亚举行？
受中东战争影响，原定4月的巴林大奖赛被迫取消，2026年巴林大奖赛将于10月2日至4日在吉隆坡附近的雪邦国际赛道举行，正赛定于10月4日周日。

2026年巴林大奖赛将不在巴林举行，而是在马来西亚举行。赛事将于10月2日至4日在吉隆坡附近的雪邦国际赛道举行，正赛定于10月4日星期日。它的官方名称是“在马来西亚举行的F1海湾航空巴林大奖赛”。
更换举办地的原因是中东的战争。原定于4月举行的巴林站比赛不得不取消。通过在马来西亚举办一场替代赛事，巴林大奖赛得以保留在赛历之上。
巴林大奖赛原定于2026年4月10日至12日举行，是本赛季的第四站。沙特阿拉伯大奖赛原定于一周后举行。2026年3月14日，一级方程式与国际汽联宣布，这两场比赛将不会在4月举行。
这一决定是在涉及伊朗的战争背景下做出的，该战争于2月下旬爆发。伊朗的袭击击中了巴林境内的目标，包括距离赛道仅几公里的燃油设施。整个地区的空中交通也受到严格限制。在这种情况下，无法安全地举办比赛周末。
一级方程式主席兼首席执行官斯特凡诺·多梅尼卡利当时表示：“虽然这是一个艰难的决定，但考虑到当前中东局势，这不幸地是现阶段正确的决定。”
春季没有替补比赛。由于没有足够的准备时间将一场比赛移师欧洲，导致日本大奖赛与迈阿密大奖赛之间出现了五周的空档。

寻找替代赛道的计划于七月开始成形。最初有消息称，马来西亚正在考虑于2026年举办一场比赛。2026年7月26日，一级方程式和国际汽联正式确认，一级方程式将在阔别九年后重返马来西亚。
赛历和物流是选择雪邦的主要原因。这场比赛位于9月26日的阿塞拜疆大奖赛和10月11日的新加坡大奖赛之间。雪邦与新加坡之间仅相距约320公里。这形成了一个三连赛，而车队无需进行大规模的物流绕行。
还有就是赛道本身。从1999年到2017年，雪邦一直是一级方程式赛历上的固定站点。这座场馆是为大奖赛而建，在举办一级方程式赛事方面已经拥有丰富的经验。评论员马丁·布伦德尔也赞扬了相关人员所展现出的灵活性。
“这项运动再次证明了它适应变化、寻找解决方案并成功交付的能力，为所有关注一级方程式的车迷创造了一个激动人心的时刻，”多梅尼卡利说。
国际汽联主席本·苏拉耶姆表示，重返雪邦赛道“证明了我们与马来西亚赛车运动协会的紧密关系、马来西亚政府的持续支持，以及我们这项运动中国际合作的力量。”
为什么这项比赛仍然叫巴林大奖赛？
尽管比赛在马来西亚举行，这项赛事仍然保留巴林大奖赛的名称。这是一级方程式、国际汽联以及巴林和马来西亚两国政府之间协议的结果。巴林仍然是大奖赛的名义主办国，而比赛本身在雪邦国际赛道举行。巴林的国家航空公司海湾航空仍然是冠名赞助商。
巴林还决定票价，并根据雪邦国际赛车场的说法，由巴林获得门票销售收入。对巴林来说，这意味着其大奖赛并没有完全从2026年赛历上消失。门票正通过巴林国际赛车场官网销售。海湾航空也将赶在比赛周末之前开通巴林与吉隆坡之间的直飞航班。
巴林国际赛车场首席执行官萨勒曼·本·伊萨·阿勒哈利法亲王表示：“自从我们宣布在马来西亚举办巴林大奖赛以来，车迷和这项运动相关人士的反馈令人难以置信。车迷现在有机会确保自己成为这段独一无二的F1历史的一部分。”
在‘错误’国家举办的大奖赛：以前也发生过
大奖赛在名称所指的国家之外举办，在一级方程式中并非完全没有先例。不过在以往的案例中，出借国名给比赛的国家与实际承办比赛的国家在地理上要接近得多。
1982年瑞士大奖赛在法国第戎举行，因为瑞士在1955年勒芒惨剧之后禁止了场地赛车。
圣马力诺大奖赛于1981年至2006年在意大利的伊莫拉举行。而意大利本身已经在蒙扎拥有自己大奖赛。
1997年和1998年，纽博格林承办了卢森堡大奖赛。
最近一次在雪邦举行的F1比赛由马克斯·维斯塔潘于2017年夺冠。塞巴斯蒂安·维特尔保持着在该赛道最多F1胜利的纪录，共四次。其他令人难忘的时刻包括迈克尔·舒马赫在1999年腿伤康复后的复出，以及刘易斯·汉密尔顿在2016年的引擎故障，这使他在年度冠军争夺战中损失了宝贵的积分。
2026年的比赛将为56圈，总里程310.418公里。一些车队正在为一级方程式重返雪邦做大量准备。例如，梅赛德斯已经宣布为马来西亚站带来一次重大升级。
与此同时，赛季的结束仍存在不确定性。卡塔尔和阿布扎比的比赛也取决于中东局势的发展。多梅尼卡利已经说明了一级方程式需要在什么时候对赛季收官站做出决定。

Why is the 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix taking place in Malaysia?
A Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia: Formula 1 has never seen anything quite like it. We explain why the race is taking place at Sepang and why it will still carry the Bahrain name
The 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix will not take place in Bahrain, but in Malaysia. The event will be held from 2-4 October at the Sepang International Circuit near Kuala Lumpur, with the race scheduled for Sunday 4 October. Its official name is the "Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia".
The reason for the move is the war in the Middle East. The original Bahrain race in April had to be cancelled. By staging a replacement event in Malaysia, the Bahrain Grand Prix remains on the calendar.
The Bahrain Grand Prix was originally scheduled to take place on 10-12 April 2026 as the fourth round of the season. The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix was due to follow one week later. On 14 March 2026, Formula 1 and the FIA announced that both races would not take place in April.
The decision came against the backdrop of the war involving Iran, which had begun in late February. Iranian attacks hit targets in Bahrain, including fuel facilities only a few kilometres from the circuit. Air traffic across the region was also severely restricted. Under those circumstances, it was not possible to stage the race weekend safely.
"While this was a difficult decision to take, it is unfortunately the right one at this stage considering the current situation in the Middle East," Formula 1 President and CEO Stefano Domenicali said at the time.
There were no replacement races in the spring. There was not enough preparation time to move an event to Europe, leaving a five-week gap between the Japanese and Miami Grands Prix.

Plans for a replacement began to take shape in July. It initially emerged that Malaysia was considering hosting a race in 2026. On 26 July 2026, Formula 1 and the FIA officially confirmed that Formula 1 would return to Malaysia after a nine-year absence.
The calendar and logistics were major reasons for choosing Sepang. The race sits between the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on 26 September and the Singapore Grand Prix on 11 October. Sepang and Singapore are only around 320 kilometres apart. That creates a triple-header without requiring the teams to make a major logistical detour.
Then there is the circuit itself. Sepang was a permanent fixture on the Formula 1 calendar from 1999 to 2017. The venue was built for grand prix racing and already has extensive experience of staging Formula 1 events. Pundit Martin Brundle also praised the flexibility shown by those involved.
"Once again, the sport has demonstrated its ability to adapt, find solutions, and deliver, creating an exciting moment for everyone who follows Formula 1," said Domenicali.
FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem said the return to Sepang was "testament to our close relationship with the Motorsports Association of Malaysia, the continued commitment of the Malaysian Government, and the strength of international cooperation within our sport."
Why is it still called the Bahrain Grand Prix?
Despite being held in Malaysia, the event remains the Bahrain Grand Prix. This is the result of an agreement between Formula 1, the FIA and the governments of Bahrain and Malaysia. Bahrain remains the nominal host of the grand prix, while the race itself takes place at the Sepang International Circuit. Bahrain's national airline Gulf Air remains the title sponsor.
Bahrain also determines ticket prices and, according to the Sepang International Circuit, receives the revenue from ticket sales. For Bahrain, this means its Grand Prix has not disappeared entirely from the 2026 calendar. Tickets are being sold through the Bahrain International Circuit website. Gulf Air is also launching direct flights between Bahrain and Kuala Lumpur in time for the race weekend.
"The feedback from fans and those involved in the sport since we announced The Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia has been incredible. Fans now have their opportunity to ensure they are part of this unique piece of F1 history," said Shaikh Salman bin Isa Al Khalifa, Chief Executive of the Bahrain International Circuit.
Grands Prix in the 'wrong' country: It has happened before
A grand prix being held outside the country whose name it carries is not entirely unprecedented in Formula 1. In previous cases, however, the country lending its name to the race and the country actually hosting it were much closer geographically.
The 1982 Swiss Grand Prix was held at Dijon in France because Switzerland had banned circuit racing following the 1955 Le Mans disaster.
The San Marino Grand Prix was held at Imola in Italy from 1981 to 2006. Italy already had its own Grand Prix at Monza.
In 1997 and 1998, the Nurburgring hosted the Luxembourg Grand Prix.
The most recent Formula 1 race at Sepang was won by Max Verstappen in 2017. Sebastian Vettel holds the record for the most F1 victories at the circuit with four. Other memorable moments include Michael Schumacher's comeback from a broken leg in 1999 and Lewis Hamilton's engine failure in 2016, which cost him valuable points in the championship battle.
The 2026 race will run for 56 laps and cover 310.418 kilometres. Some teams are preparing extensively for Formula 1's return to Sepang. Mercedes, for example, has announced a major upgrade for Malaysia.
The end of the season, meanwhile, remains uncertain. The races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi also depend on developments in the Middle East. Domenicali has already explained when Formula 1 will need to make a decision on the season finale.
