The Track:
Weather:
Tropical weather with storms or thunderstorms coming anytime. The forecats for coming weekend promises some fun.
The facts and previous results:
- Malaysian Grand Prix has been on the F1 calendar since 1999.
- Ferrari won 4 times, Renault twice, McLaren and Williams once
- Four previous winners from Sepang will be on the grid this year (Ralf, Fisi, Alonso and Kimi)
- Only Fisichella is still at the same team with whom he won in Sepang
- 2005 was funny for Honda (BAR) in Sepang – Sato got sick night before the race, Davidson stepped in, but then both him and Button retired on lap 2 with smoky engines.
