Formula 1's long-awaited return to Sepang delivered immediate chaos when multiple cars ground to a halt during the formation lap due to an unprecedented combination of weather and software constraints.
FIA single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis issued a formal apology for the bizarre scenes, which notably affected Lewis Hamilton after his car suffered a sudden power loss attributed to a software glitch.
Heavy rainfall initially delayed the race start by an hour, leading to a slower-than-usual formation lap. The unique circuit configuration combined with wet-weather energy management settings triggered unexpected power unit issues across several teams.
Alongside Hamilton, various Ferrari-powered machines, both Audi entries, and Liam Lawson experienced trouble, forcing officials to abort the start sequence and trigger a crucial 40-minute red flag delay.
Max Verstappen ultimately mastered the chaotic conditions to claim victory while the FIA distributed a rapid software fix to remove energy limits before racing resumed.
