On the warm-up lap at Sepang, before the race even began, multiple cars suddenly lost all power and rolled to a stop on track.
Think of it like a phone that freezes mid-call.
Except the phone costs RM80 million, is doing 60km/h in a tropical downpour, and 20 of them froze at the same time.
The FIA confirmed four things hit simultaneously: the cars were moving unusually slowly, the track was wet and slippery, the engines were in rain-saving mode, and Sepang’s track layout triggered the problem at exactly the wrong moment.
