PICTURES: Sepang underwater!

Day one of the Sepang MotoGP test was brought to a premature end by torrential ꦛrain, which fell on the Malaysian circuit from 1pm, flooding parts of the track - in particular turn three (pictured), where the water was waist-deep!

Such scenes were reminiscenꦚt of September's grand prix, when a similar storm led to the cancellation of qualifying and, as these pictures sh൲ow, the Sepang circuit is still to find a drainage system capable of handling the standing water created by such downpours...

Weather permitting, ꧒testing at Sepang will continue on Thursday.
