The FIA has provided an update on the weather conditions expected over the coming minutes, but for now there is little positive news regarding the start of the Bahrain Grand Prix.
Shortly before the scheduled start, the FIA officially confirmed that the Bahrain Grand Prix would be delayed due to the heavy rain that had swept across the Sepang International Circuit. The downpour intensified in the build-up to the race, leaving significant amounts of water on parts of the track and making conditions unsuitable for the Grand Prix to begin as planned.
