Hong Kong actor Bosco Wong fulfilled a long-time dream when he met Spanish racer Fernando Alonso at the 2026 Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix in Sepang, held from Oct 2 to 4.
In an Instagram post on Oct 2, Wong, 45, shared a selfie with Alonso – who holds two Formula One World Drivers' Championship titles – and captioned it: “WooooooW, finally met you!”
The post also featured nine other photos taken at the Sepang International Circuit, including two snapshots of Wong posing beside a race car near the pit lane.
Last month, Wong shared a photo on social media of the F1 Paddock Club tickets he had purchased with the help of a friend to watch the race in Malaysia.
At the time, the former TVB star said: "This is my first time watching F1 live. I have to experience it no matter what."
According to China Press, Wong spent a five-figure sum on the tickets, priced between RM22,500 and RM26,600.
It is understood that the F1 Paddock Club offers a range of exclusive experiences, including a pit lane walk, where guests can get close to the teams as they practise their pit stops, and a guided track tour.
Guests are also said to also have access to air-conditioned hospitality suites located on the upper level of the main pit building, where they can enjoy a closer view of the circuit.
For the record, Wong has long been a fan of cars and motorsports.
In a 2023 interview with Hong Kong media, he revealed that he owns eight cars, most of which are vintage models.
