McLaren had a weekend to forget in Baku, but their ability to accelerate out of corners could be a major weapon in Malaysia for the Bahrain Grand Prix. The problem is, F1 hasn't raced at Sepang since 2017, and rain could make learning the track even more difficult. So, who will adapt the fastest, and who will get left behind?

Adam and Terry are joined by special guest Chris McCarthy to discuss the biggest considerations you’ll face planning the best F1 Fantasy lineups for Malaysia’s Sepang International Circuit, including:

• Why McLaren's unique gearbox could be a hidden edge in Malaysia (and the next two races)
• What to expect from a track less than half the grid has ever raced on
• Which chips are in play at a rain-soaked, unknown track
• Max Verstappen vs. Lando Norris vs. George Russell — and where does Oscar Piastri fit?
• Price gain targets to help grow your F1 Fantasy cost cap
• Our F1 Fantasy tier list: every driver and team ranked for the Bahrain GP in Malaysia
• Our best team F1 Fantasy lineups for the Bahrain GP in Malaysia
• Our race week schedule and how to get your F1 Fantasy questions answered
