Alonso staying at Aston Martin 'a strong signal' – Krack

Mike Krack believes that Fernando Alonso’s decision to re-sign with Aston Martin for the 2027 season is “a strong signal to everybody”, as the team looks to turn its fortunes around. Ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia this weekend, Alonso confirmed he would remain with Aston Martin for next season after months of speculation about his future and whether he would retire. While the Spaniard said his decision to continue in Formula 1 was due to a “fire inside”, Alonso has also taken into account the trajectory of Aston Martin during a difficult season where it has occupied the back of the grid....

Drivers reflect on the key challenge they expect in Sepang

Drivers reflect on the key challenge they expect in Sepang

For half of the Formula 1 grid, Thursday was a first chance to take a proper look at a Sepang track that they’ve previously only seen on TV or experienced in factory simulators, and for the rest it was a chance to refamiliarise themselves with a venue that they last sampled nine years ago. One thing came as no surprise to either track rookies or veterans though. Sepang has always been noted for a rough surface that gives tyres a hard time and, if anything, as the years have gone by it has become even more abrasive....

Verstappen leads FP1 at Bahrain GP in Malaysia

Max Verstappen topped the timesheets during the opening practice hour at the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, the Red Bull man setting the pace ahead of George Russell and Isack Hadjar. With the Sepang International Circuit having last hosted an F1 event back in 2017, many drivers on the grid had not previously experienced the Malaysian track - meaning that Friday’s first practice offered a valuable initial opportunity to get to grips with the venue....

Leclerc tops FP2 from Hadjar at Bahrain GP in Malaysia

Charles Leclerc ended second practice at the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia on top, the Ferrari racer going fastest from Isack Hadjar and Lando Norris. After familiarising themselves with the Sepang International Circuit earlier on Friday during a dry and sunny opening practice hour, the drivers were faced with potentially more uncertain conditions entering into FP2 as dark clouds lingered over the track. Most of the field appeared keen to get some early mileage on the board amid a 90 per cent chance of rain during the session, leading to a queue of cars filing out of the pit lane when the green light appeared at 1600 local time....
