SEPANG Oct 4, 2026 — Formula 1 said Lewis Hamilton briefly slowed with a problem during the wet Bahrain Grand Prix build-up at Sepang International Circuit before recovering and getting going again.
In successive live updates on its official account, the championship first reported that “Hamilton is going slow, he’s got an issue,” then followed with “Hamilton’s got going again” as spray and standing water continued to make conditions difficult.
The moments came as Race Control managed a disrupted start sequence in heavy rain at the Malaysian circuit, which is hosting the Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix.
Formula 1 shared trackside images of both updates under the #F1 and #BahrainGP tags. No further details on the nature of the issue were given in the posts.
