An orange aircraft was filmed taxiing at Sepang on 30 September 2026 as people gathered beside the runway. Text in the clip identifies the arrival as Formula 1 driver Max Verstappen.
The unusual race name is correct. Formula 1 lists the 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia at Sepang from 2 to 4 October. Malaysian coverage also reported that Formula 1 teams and drivers were arriving in the country before the race weekend.
The footage shows the aircraft and the reception on the ground. It does not show Verstappen leaving the plane, so the identification comes from the source clip rather than a clear view of him in the frame.
