When it last featured on the calendar in 2017, prices for tickets in Malaysia were the cheapest of the whole season, and attendance was poor. Fast forward nine years and Sepang International Circuit is set to make an unexpected (and much more popular) return to the F1 calendar. The Bahrain promoter is responsible for setting ticket prices, and they are broadly similar to those found at Bahrain International Circuit, itself offering some of the cheapest tickets on the current F1 calendar. Unfortunately, the launch of ticket sales was compromised by much higher than expected demand for tickets, which saw the Bahrain GP website crash or forced fans to wait in line for hours.
Away from the track, Kuala Lumpur is very affordable for such a popular travel destination. Hotel rooms are sure to be inflated on race weekend, but are still much cheaper than in neighboring Singapore. Eating out is also very affordable in Malaysia, though alcohol is highly taxed in this Muslim-majority country.
