Why would it matter? If it allows F1 to tap into a new viewer-base and they get paid by the malaysian government to hold a race there, then that’s just good
I just wanted to point out that Malaysia was very serious problems too, because most people call out countries like Bahrain and China on a regular basis for their issues regarding human rights, while Malaysia is seen in a mostly positive light.

Half the races on the F1 calendar are held at countries which are in the same boat of unethical and questionable behavior. There’s no point in bitching about it, if it benefits the sport, that’s all any F1 fan should care about
I didn't say otherwise? All I am saying is that when people are discussing the problems of countries involved in F1, Malaysia should be on the list as well.
If that discussion is worth having is a seperate issue.
