KUALA LUMPUR: The Sepang International Circuit (SIC) will not become a white elephant despite Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announcing that Malaysia will no longer be organising the Formula One race next year.

The F1 Malaysian Grand Prix, which was introduced in 1999, will be held for the last time from Sept 29-Oct 1.
