In March, it was reported that Formula E's return to Malaysia was in its advanced stage with a proposal between Sports Tech Holdings and Formula E - which aimed for Malaysia to host the season finale until 2030. A move that would potentially boost the economy by RM6.73 billion over the decade, creating over 10,000 jobs.

However, the plan fell through due to high costs and financial demands from Formula E. Now, Thailand has emerged as the prime candidate to host the season finale. Was this a missed opportunity for Malaysia or simply a futile effort?

Joining us on the program to discuss this further is Twentytwo13’s Haresh Deol.
