From a one hour vid to a less than 10 minute vid? What a transition!
That was some of the smoothest segue into the Blue Beam advert I've ever seen.
Elvis Presley did this first in 1964 .
If I ever design a building in Las Vegas, I will .
Not sure why most of the clips in the beginning, that ought to show what F1 is and what the excitement should be about, is containing crashes instead. Considering that crashes are not wanted and very unfortunate, with many catastrophic events from the past with people dying, it's unfortunate to portrait it in that way for entertainment. Also, it gives the wrong impression of the sport.
Calling it the world's greatest race track is a BOLD statement.
It's clearly not. Spa is the best track.
*Bold*
Not sure how on earth that statement was made....
A crap track in a crap country.
My fellow die-hard F1 fans have nicknamed it “The Spider Pig”, for it’s resemblance to THAT iconic moment in The Simpsons 🐖
Could you imagine if one team on the on end used imperial and the other used metric and they didn't quite meet in the middle...
you say that but things like that have happened in the past
@@ablair37
Ask NASA
thats happened in international space projects before.
Many electronics will work on either voltage, the main issue is the plugs
@@SpecterJoe I think he's talking about the building itself being built in 2 halves
The funny thing about this project is that the residents of Las Vegas have hated this whole process as it's been massively disruptive. And now word is they're having trouble selling all the tickets.
Even the absurd VIP tickets aren't selling. This whole thing seems to be a fiasco and a ludicrous waste of money.
I wrote my reply before seeing yours. We both agree this has been a shit show.
A regular ticket is like 1000 dollars basically double the next highest ticket of the year. Not surprised it doesn't sell
It's the USA. People don't rule this shithole, money and excessive capitalism does... oh what a surprise
Hotels have had to massively lower the prices too over the last month
Should have talked about the 'temporary' road bridges they added due to the race.
those are at every F1 track
As much as a headache the Las Vegas locals have endured by all this at least they are left with the smoothest driving surface in the United States.
Didn't they only resurface a few lanes of the road and not even all the lanes of one direction?
@@MrAffenMaster read 80% of the Strip is being resurfaced. I doubt most locals care much about the Strip tho, they probably stay away unless they work there
We don’t drive those roads unless absolutely necessary
This didn’t age well
Las Vegas strip: hold my drain cover
Doesn't make up for the constant disruption permantley caused all year long which is 10x worse in the 3 months leading up to the race every single year for the foreseeable future. The extent of disruption is wild far beyond traffic
Nice to see B1M cover the construction side of the GP. Not a lot of new information in this clip but a good summary of what happened nonetheless.
one of the things this video brought to light for me was really how QUICKLY it all had to come together- the paddock, in particular. I mean, I was aware of it, tangentially, but this really highlighted it. makes me sort of wonder how careful some of the construction really is.
A key piece of factual information worth adding to the video is that F1 is incredibly boring.
As a resident of Las Vegas and as some one who works on the Strip within the island of the F1 track, this year has been maddening with all the construction and traffic issues. We're use to big events taking a few weeks to be done and over with in a few weeks till the next event rolls in right after. But F1 is different since its been almost a year and covering the majority of the heart of the Strip. Hopefully the future years go a lot more smoothly in closures and construction.
Yes but you do realize that they will not be needing to resurface the entire track every year right?
Another resident here! But, one that lives and works well off the strip... All I hear mostly are complaints and it's kind of starting to drive me mad. After moving here, I always heard "Locals never go to the strip" (I do! Best people watching ever), yet these same people are also the ones I hear doing most of the complaining about the traffic/construction on the strip... It's nice to hear from someone who actually works on the strip. I know it probably sucks a lot right now, but I do think a lot of this is first year stuff. The paving is only every 6 years (so they say), and I think they'll be more efficient each year with lessons learned and some infrastructure already being in place. It's supposedly going to bring in over $1 billion in revenue. I know much of that will go to big corporations, but I hope those of you working on the strip and the small businesses also see some of that in tips, sales, bonuses, raises, etc...
@@lor7780with our weather are you sure? The heat might destroy the road and it might need to be fixed every year...
@@johnathanmcfadden8978 It’s designed to be repaved in 6 years.
certainly like monaco@@lor7780
opening traffic between the grand prix is insane! these hotels really need alternative solutions for traffic management
Yep! All I can think of is because of greed by the city of Vegas.
LasVegas needs a Monorail for pedestrians!
@@mho... It has one.
@@rickmartinez3781Privately owned and connecting only part of the tourist areas. It is not a replacement for mass transit - and mass transit is what Vegas is most in need of.
(And that Tesla tunnel isn’t a solution either, it’s just… bullshit.)
The first thing came to my mind is the track will get abused between sessions... I can see it now, some entitled American will get the shits and drive up there dumping a load of paint or drag a skip up the road to damage the track.
"The world's greatest race track". That's saying a lot for an event that has not turned a lap yet
yeah but, murica
And designed by Tilke lol
I dont know how to feel on the whole Vegas F1 thing as an F1 fan who has heard about how bad the traffic has been the past few weeks for these guys. I live in Singapore and they handle the whole situation much better with delays being about 10 mins extra max. I don't see how you can justify shutting down a whole city just for one weekend. F1 is amazing but vegas really needs to improve.
It's a new race, so hiccups are understandable. With time, the disruptions will no doubt be less intrusive.
This isnt an F1 issue as it is an awful traffic management issue. They’ve split the city in half when they widened the boulevard for cars instead of adding an alternative route for through traffic; and now they’re paying the price when their only artery is blocked.
@@baconwizardit’s not a traffic issue. It’s a having zero mass transit issue.
@@baconwizardNo matter how well anyone designs their road infrastructure, it will always have traffic issues. Cars can not provide the density and efficiency required for the travel needs of everyone who lives and/or works in a city. To make driving faster and more convenient requires less people to drive. Access to reliable, frequent, and affordable public transport would be the backbone of this. Usually I'd suggest cycling infrastructure as well, but I'm not sure if a place like Las Vegas would be very bicycle friendly due to the heat. Making places better accessible by walking (along with providing proper shade to those who walk) will also help against traffic.
The Netherlands is considered one of the best places to drive even though we have a lot of infrastructure where cars are not the primary mode of travel. There's also a huge bicycle network and parking garages for bikes. I hardly ever take a car anymore because it is stressful to me and I have good alternatives. If I didn't have these alternatives I would be forced to drive, which would make the driving experience worse for others.
The concept at play here is called "induced demand". Traffic gets bad, roads are widened, traffic issues are gone, that route is more appealing to people who would otherwise stay at home or use another form of transport, and the traffic gets worse until the balance is back to where it was. Now buildings need to be destroyed and people need to be displaced for extra lanes, and people need to travel further to their destinations which will increase how long people spend on the road. It's a never ending cycle where traffic won't be solved and everyone loses. But induced demand can also work for efficient modes of transport which can handle those high capacities.
Many people actually need a car because cars can move a lot of stuff and provide mobility to people who lack certain kinds of mobility. So we can't entirely get rid of cars in cities. But since the vast majority of people wouldn't need a car at most times, it would be best to provide them with a more convenient alternative
In Monaco we get +45minutes of traffic and its in a tiny ass country so legit its just how F1 works. Suck it up. Its 4 days a year. You'll survive
The strip desperately needs a proper transit system that travels the entire length. This would allow the road to be shut down more frequently for events.
Elon Musk and Richard Branson are both coughing
Having been a flag marshal at the LVGP, I can say the track crew's learning curve was significant to deploy the crash barriers each evening. On Wednesday (for only Safety Car laps) when we arrived, only half of the movable barriers were in place. By Friday evening, the final barriers were being set into place as we arrived to begin our preparations and by Saturday they were all in place when we arrived. The did a great job improving each day.
This F1 construction mess is a nightmare for the locals and tourists alike. I was in Vegas a couple of weeks ago and had to wait a long time just to get an Uber or taxi ride. I didn't even walk on the Strip because it's such a mess.
Ok Karen
Don’t go to NYC you’ll hate it, construction is known to create these headaches. Wahhh wahhhhh
@@TopGKev Lol! I lived in NYC for 5 years brother, I know how hectic that city is and I've lived in big cities through out my life. I like Vegas because is not as congested as other cities that I lived in. So yeah, wahhh wahhh. Ha ha!
Ubers are also adding a surcharge or 15 dollars or something like that. The excuse being ‘Europeans don’t tip’ 😂
@@TopGKev NYC has subways you numb nut
I was in Vegas as they were well into getting everything set up for the race, and the roads just off the strip were a complete mess. Traffic was also absolutely horrendous because of all the construction and roads being blocked off. I'd heard that the locals also hated the setup for this race because of how messed up the roads became and how much it disrupted their daily lives.
It's definitely a cool construction project but i'm kinda missing the local's view and problems they were and still are facing...
And 0:45 "the world's greatest racetrack" is also debatable but let's see once the racing begins :D
Why would they want to include the locals complaints about greed by F1?
@@JimAllen-Persona well the most complaints I feel like come from the constructing blocking roads for locals and denying their access as well as blocking some smaller shops hence destroying their economy
They live in Vegas lol. I don’t know what they were expecting.
The first & 2nd practice session will go down in history as "what not to do to loyal fans"
They'll open the track between sessions for normal cars?! That absolutely insane, both for the people that need to get around because there are no alternatives and for F1 itself, imagine just before they're about to close the gates that some cars get into an accident or a car spills some oil somewhere on track...
... or the precise surface is damaged by a flat, or truck dragging something. I see this rapidly becoming a nightmare.
The best solution would be… not building a track in the middle of a metropolis. Mind blowing 🤯 I know
They open Monaco to residents between sessions and the surface will last 6 years. Pipe down 😂
Only difference is that Americans would be driving hehe
As if this massive investment didn’t account for a margin of error. Get back to digging you fools
As an F1 fan it would be exciting to see a new F1 Grand Prix, but also concerning
F1 fan calling it a course is just....
What is your concern?
@@LoCoAde87What's wrong with it being called a course?
@@TopGKevI think it might be challenging for Las Vegas to host a huge high speed race, particularly with their traffic jams
@@LoCoAde87I meant Grand Prix, the word slipped my mind when I was writing the previous comments
This is a great sequel to your Monaco episode! Great timing on this one too, striking while the iron is hot!
Nice to see the nepotism / 'keeping it in the family' in F1 extends to the track design bureaus too!
Big fan of the B1M and big fan of F1. Gotta love it when the two collide. Thanks!
Can you do a video about the High Speed Rail Project from L.A. to Las Vegas? 😊
I really love how this channel has grown!! Even the editing is spectacular 🎉🎉
Awesome video! Thanks for creating this superb content!
I just seen another video about somebody walking around the track, and it's unbelievable what needs to be built and done to make this F1 all happen. Several temporary bridges for cars for example, wow!
*53 seconds in* "worlds greatest racetrack" ?!?! are you fkn kidding me
"What happens when you take the world's most exciting motorsport and host it in the entertainment capital of the planet?"
oh boy I don't know but having a MotoGP race somewhere near Los Angeles sounds amazing
Wish we could've had more insight into the companies involved, the techniques used, the coordination between the two teams involved in the padock but overall still as solid as ever, my friend!🔥👌
Great video as always mate, thanks for sharing it! Wish you all a happy day! ☺☺☺☺☺
While the construction is cool, not enough people talk about how inconvenient it is for all the people living there and the businesses that have to close or otherwise be impacted by turning their street and carpark into a track and blocking access.
Lots of people are talking about it. Multiple RUclips channels. Progress can be messy
@@NFS305. F1 could afford to compensate some of the smaller businesses/employees that are being hurt by this and they should, but they won’t.
@@ebeb516 such is life.
Everyone’s already talking about you people whining over trees(that are not native) being transplanted, protective film covering the glass of the bridge(to prevent people from overcrowding on the bridge) and commutes taking more time. You people are so entitled just because you can’t watch a race for free guess what this is same for Jeddah, Singapore and Baku you Americans aren’t the exception to the rules and regulations.
what? I said nothing about trees or protecting people, i dont watch f1 and im not american. did you reply to the wrong comment?@@adg98
The world's greatest race track that has never been raced on.
they are clueless... calling this the greatest racetrack ever is just insulting to say the least. Pure ignorance.
Literally the shape of a pig and just by looking at the layout, I can see that the racing will be boring (by European standards, anyway).
@@elwingy
It's an entitled opinion that everyone has a right to have
It isn't ignorant when
they don't agree with your opinion
It's ignorant to think that they have too
cry more@@elwingy
@@elwingyu sound like such a loser
I have tickets to go and I’m so excited to see it
A few minutes into FP1 and we can conclude that the statement ‘worlds greatest race track’ is incorrect 😂 (as expected)
I was not prepared for the B1M to cover the F1. But boy did it feel good!
Can’t wait for the video about how the whole construction was a failure
I watch a few Vegas youtubers and they have pretty much said this whole thing is a clusterfuck for actual residents of vegas.
When is Vegas not?
Yeah, I bet they haaaate the tips they will get from this event.... Bunch of ungrateful leaches.
That has to be the best advertising placement I've seen. Well done, I usually skip the part.
I live here the race is today. I also work on the strip. This is the most hated project ever for the city they absolutely do not give a fuck about the people who live here and have to go to work. Traffic has been a stand still for over a year. They built barriers and tinted windows so you can’t even see it without buying the outrageous tickets. Every local is hoping it fails and never comes back! Its a absolute disaster they already had to cut the prices by 60% and still can’t even sell them it’s a massive waste of money and time.
@@trollololol69 lol nobody here to see it anyway
Huge traffic issues and yet still no adequate public transport 😫
And then a water valve destroys 3 cars in 8 minutes and Ferrari is being penalized 10 grid spots for replacing the destroyed engine.
I drove the track on Tuesday and Wednesday. Caught a few lights where I was first one up on the red. When it turned green, floored it hard. The road is amazing, incredibly smooth. Just wish i was in an F1 car.
Man, I work at Ceasars Palace, I promise y'all, we hate this whole process.. everybody late for work n local businesses lost so much money due to the construction, we gon have to deal with this shit for the next 10 years sadly
"due to the construction"
don't need to do construction again every year after it's done...
worlds greatest race track?????
You didn’t mention how they are destroying Las Vegas landmarks. Or how they are blocking public views of the track. Or the dwindling ticket sales.
😭 awww. Try to enjoy it.
Yeah nobody is paying $7000
You also think that B1M should talk about oil prizes when they make videos on oil rigs?
@@FabledGentleman No. But they have in the past reported on opposition to certain construction projects. So when an international event receives as much bad publicity like the Vegas F1 did, I would have expected them to report on it.
Tickets are sold out champ
That closing and reopening the roads plan will be chaotic for the cleaners having to prepare for the next session.... awesome presentation Fred, cheers to you 🤟🎶
A night race in the desert in November. Tell us how they planned for some of the coldest temperatures on the calendar.
Here in Augusta, GA, home of the Masters golf tournament, we are used to rapid-paced construction. A new media building, diversion of a road, and rebuilding of the par 3 course projects were each completed within a year. When money is no object, anything you want can be built quickly.
Very enjoyable as always 👍
Great to watch some F1 content on B1M! 👏
Cool that they got Tilke to do the interview, him responding to the last question about what makes a successful GP with if the race goes on safely as the first response is great
That is because the family Tilke doesn't know how to create a good race track. They always make the same tracks that create boring races in places that pay a lot of money.
@@MrMattie725 so in order to have a track worth watching they need to sacrifice safety? and Abu Dhabi 2021 broke the record of most people tuning in to watch a pretty boring sport, everyone said it was exciting too and that was at another Tilkedrome
@guy990 lol, that had absolutely nothing to do with the track it was the last race with 2 drivers equal on points 😂
For F1 and the organizers' sake, I do hope this actually ends up offering good racing. They've apparently dumped nearly half a billion dollars into this just to make this happen. If it doesn't work and there's a lack of interest, they'll have to go through this for 10 years due to contract.
Very unlikely, they have the worst circuit of the whole season.
Greed meets stupidity.
3 years
Contract expires in 2027
If temperature is around 10°C at night as they say, it's gonna be a nightmare to race there. No good racing at all
With the track roads open to the public traffic between the 7 hours periods, they better take care of security and sweep the roads carefully because for sure there are already some idiots planning to drop nails on the road, or something like that, for fun. It wouldn't be the first time something bad happened because of people messing with the track.
They have sweepers
I am a F1 big fan, ty for video it was really impressive
a great video again. thank you
Word has it Vegas' "glittering moment" is pretty much guaranteed to be a very costly exercise for the sponsors!!! Excessive profit taking (300% markups on already pricy accomodation), sky-high ticket prices and generally disgruntled public means the fans have stayed away in droves. Frantic price cutting in an attempt to lure the punters in has made the early bookers really unhappy as their "premium" tickets are now hugely discounted. Oh and don't forget thd planners (FIA included) forgot the desert air and cold temps make for loose track conditions due to poor tyre heating - looking like an impromptu skating rink untill tyres heat up. Gotta love the late night (midnight!!!) practice session on Friday and 22:00 race time!!! Greed meets stupidity!!😮
Just got back from Vegas. Im sure the event will be great! But traffic is a mess and there's even a temporary constructed bridge over Flamingo. Foot traffic crossing the strip is even more congested due to limiting foot patterns.
"The world's greatest track in the world's most spectacular city" this must be some of that British sarcasm I keep hearing about
It might be a bad time of year for the track and lay-out.but i usally love the results when teams go into the unknown and the best team for what given to them comes out on top.thats why on a track driven many times rain usally makes for a intresting and fun result.
The race is definitely going to be spectacular, no doubt about that. Not just because of the mesmerizing location, but also because they race 10 pm at night, in November. The track can be as cold as 4-5 degrees centigrade. This is thus the coldest track on the formula calendar, which makes this race a real struggle for the teams. They have to compensate a lot to keep the tires warm here, we are probably going to see a huge difference between experienced and rookie drivers, this race will push the limits of the engineers, drivers and car design. It's going to be a blast.
@@PM-uc4kgthey get really cold if u didn’t know
@@PM-uc4kg yeah deserts can get really really cold at night. The Sahara Desert for example, is often -4 degrees centigrade at night (25 degrees Fahrenheit). While ~38/100 in day time.
Celsius...
@@jkardez4794 Celsius and centigrade is the exact same thing.
@@FabledGentleman Agreed but it is now referred to as Celsius after Anders Celsius who formulated the centigrade scale .
Greatest part about the entire project was the fact the brass at F1 didn't realize how cold it gets in the desert at night when the race will be held. Looking forward to engineering failures in the tire design........
Not a huge fan of Las Vegas and have been there BUT i think this is really cool and will be watching. Well done.
Luckily the circuit will give spectacular images of the city, not like the olders circuits in Las Vegas or Valencia (Spain) that were made in horrible open fields, deserts and without a visual hook for TV.
Thanks for the video.
The locals hate it. It's a giant inconvenience. F1 isn't a sport most people gamble on, so it really doesn't benefit the Strip. F1 owner Liberty Media is really the only party that's going to benefit from the race. Las Vegas hardly needs the global exposure. "It's Vegas, baby," is already an international catch phrase. What's more, the Culinary Union 226, who represent around 60,000 workers in Vegas and Nevada (everyone in hospitality is represented by CU 226) are fixing to go on strike before race day. It's not related to the race. That should make everything really interesting. There's many other issues. I'm more curious about the aftermath than the race itself.
When does the strike start?
@@michael-masi-2021 It looks like they reached a deal.
@@J3scribe that would have been egg on face for the whole show.... Next step, can they ice-skate their way around?
If only Las Vegas has public transit and is built around transporting people around, then maybe they wouldn't have needed the ridiculous reopenings of the road xD
Don't think they might justify the cost
Now I know why the Strip was a living hell during my May holidays
Thanks for that Video, always entertaining to watch B1M. Just in Times were so many people are complaining (i can understand) but that video shows how amazing it is. Need it, love it! Thanks
In the voice of Mr. Mills:
What happens when you take Albert's favourite youtube channel and mix it with his favourite sport.
You get B1M's Race to Turn Las Vegas Into an F1 track as a video!
So now we have the Son of Tilke designing tracks? Where are all the other tracks designers?
Also, it's notable that both Vegas races in the 1980s were title deciders.
Something even cooler?! A MASSIVE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT Hell yeah- you nailed it. Though, perhaps, "as cool as", F1 amd MCP can be both the coolest 🙂
heading out now to see it in person!!
How could you call it the worlds greatest race track when they haven’t even had a race yet come on 😂
The F1 race prep is a mess and the aftermath will take months to clean. It would have been nice to see Vegas prep a year+ in advance because they could have took more time planning and constructing. There is some stands that are over icons around Vegas blocking views from tourists such as the fountains and the volcano. Hopefully with the money Vegas pulls in from the F1 race, they should consider the continuation of paving more streets around Vegas that truly need it and hopefully with that they overhaul the sewer and transportation systems as well.
The views wouldn't be blocked if F1 wasnt so damn greedy and blocked the people on the strip that didnt pay up their outrageous sums. Money talks and bullshit walks. They said they'd do it and they did.
It's a nice system good achievement best project
Good luck!❤
All the drone pilots are going to be crashing into each other. DJI parts flying everywhere…
considering this is the first modern city track that isnt on a coastal city, which means the track is literally in the middle of the heart of the city where everything is blocked versus Singapore and Baku on the water
Oh, and there’s already a lawsuit in the works on behalf of 35,000 ticket holders
Temperature is going to be the biggest hurdle. It's going to be COLD. These cars do not do well in cold. No tire grip and even starting the engines is going to be a challenge for the teams.
Cold, at 10pm mid November, say it's not so, I mean how could they have figured this out..... Oh yeah, Google....Damn it !
@@lvthud I live near Vegas, one time we went down a few days before New Year and IT SNOWED right on the strip. Looking out our hotel window seeing snow falling was super strange.
Well at 0100 starting time in middle of November in Nevada desert winter @4°c 🥶 temp , is probably the best way of playing the odds ...... Vegas style 😅
Just don't forget to fix down the drain covers 🤐
i am SO hyped for the race
Would've liked to heard a bit more about the controversies
Great video!😍
Couldn't even cover a manhole lol poor Sainz
Las Vegas really trying to turn the strip into a race track, but unlike Montreal, they don’t have a robust transit system to cope with loads of traffic congestion and tourists coming into the area.
I’m so excited to get there and watch
B1M and F1 in one video - watching this was like having pizza and pudding on the same plate!
What a logistical challenge on a massive scale. I hope they pull it off.
Is F1 the pizza or the pudding? Whichever one tastes like bland cardboard.
They just have to avoid the manholes lol
i am a massive F1 fan but wouldnt call it the most exciting motorsport
That's a matter of perspective. It's certainly the most technologically advanced motor sport and the one with the biggest global following and commercial relevance.
Calling Las Vegas the entertainment capital was also a matter of perspective. Macao could claim the title too.
It’s exciting when you forget the same driver wins every single race
Now, now … Max has only won 15 of the last 16.
@@julianmx13Come on, Formula 1.5 has been absolutely tremendous these last two years.

That was the most seamless sponsor plug I have ever seen...period.
I love seeing tax money get used for completely private event. And they even charge the tax payer who paying the construction
Xi jinping will liberate america
“World’s most spectacular city…” have you been to Vegas? Striking maybe, spectacular is a stretch :p
Striking is a stretch, unless you get into a fight.
I appreciated the narrative from the track designer Tilke.
I'm working security today is day 3 ITS TRULY EXCITING TO SEE ❤
The scenes when F1 cars go crashing into the corners, cos their tires aren't warm enough 😅
I visit Vegas at least 4-6 times a year. The last couple of times we went in October were a mess. As someone who loves Vegas, I’m really looking forward to watching this race, but I will definitely be cutting back my visits if they’re going to keep going through this every fall. I really hope this turns out to be a failure and they don’t do it again.
Also, since it isn’t customary in much of Europe to tip and F1 is far bigger with Europeans, I don’t see the staff of these casinos being supportive of this in the future. They’re likely to vote out any politician than does.
They have purchased land and built their own paddock/pitlane/garages and they have a 10 year contract. Better start planning around this event for the next decade!
@@michael-masi-2021 if they’re stuck with this for 10 years, I really hope it negatively effect the casinos and any politicians that approved it. Someone other than the daily worker needs to feel the negative effects of this decision.
@@MikesDIY ohh the poor daily workers... And the compulsory tips they will be swimming in... Yes poor them, I weep for them.
Everyone in Vegas is a greedy money grubbing scumbag, I cry nothing for "the daily workers".
The construction went about as fast as the race itself will!
Yes, there's already much faster racing in Vegas at the other Strip!
Who the fuck thinks Las Vegas is the “world’s greatest city”
a lot of locals were indifferent to F1, but after this whole construction debacle and the asking of extra millions of public money and threats to block up vantage points for $1500 per person they've lost a lot of goodwill from the locals and now these indifferent people are now closer to anti-F1. 8 months of construction mess is not necessarily Liberty's fault but the nickel and diming that they are doing to small businesses who happen to have a view of the course is just annoying everyone. Jacobslifeinvegas has a really good video on this. vegas doesn't need f1. it's been doing fine without it and have been setting record numbers month after month since after the pandemic.
Every F1 fan after the GP: "I OWE YOU AN APOLOGY. I WASN'T REALLY FAMILIAR WITH YOUR GAME."
This is all nice and astounding, but what everybody in F1 organisation forgot is, that LAs VEgas is in a desert, and it gets really cold there during the night. We are talking about 8°C at the race start. How that will affect the tyre grip i have no idea.
