I'm actually in Vegas now with my buddy, we were here when the announcement was made. I told my wife about it and she really wants to come down to see it. The one observation I'll make is that F1 cars doing 300KMH down Las Vegas Blvd might be a problem. The road is in terrible condition so I'm not sure how that will be addressed. Still a very kool event, I can't wait.

While Liberty is spending big bucks bringing F1 to Las Vegas, they say they want an affordable grand prix..."Liberty recognizes the need to include more casual fans that don’t want to spend thousands of dollars on spectating a race weekend."
They plan to spend 9 figures on the 39 acres they bought (for $240m) and declare that “Las Vegas is the new home of Formula 1 in North America.” https://www.thedrive.com/accelerator...r-las-vegas-gp |

Iconic Ceasars Palace rotunda will be demolished to make way for the Las Vegas GP ... "The 5,006-square-foot Roman-themed structure, which is visible from the Strip, has been welcoming guests for decades when they pull into the historic casino. The demolition — slated to cost $157,500 — will also remove the surrounding landscaping, pillars, statues, and obelisk."

Talk about a money grab...Just another sleazy move by Liberty...pay up or have your view blocked.

If I went to Vegas during the race and didn't buy a ticket I would expect I wouldn't be able to see the race live. It's what happens when you don't buy a ticket. There's an outside concert venue in our downtown, they put up a wall around it so the neighbors can't see the concerts for free.

"Las Vegas F1 hotel rates slashed by 83% in a bid to fill empty beds."
"Unlike other rounds of the 2023 Formula 1 World Championship, the Las Vegas Grand Prix is far from a sell out. And that’s having a big effect on hotel prices along the Strip." https://oversteer48.com/las-vegas-f1...ates-decrease/ |

The absolute circus that they turn all of the US GP's into is pretty annoying. Miami with their fake marina... come on.
My buddies and I fly to foreign countries to see F1 races. It's way cheaper and a much more authentic experience, imo. A few good friends went to Baku this year and absolutely loved it. |
