Las Vegas Strip Circuit

Few races match the spectacle of Formula 1 thundering down the Las Vegas Strip at night, neon and casino lights blazing past at well over three hundred kilometres per hour. The Strip Circuit is built for raw speed, with several long straights linked by a handful of tight corners, producing some of the highest top speeds of the season and abundant slipstreaming opportunities. Teams trim wings aggressively to chase those numbers, leaving cars edgy through the slower sections. The desert night brings unusually cold track temperatures that make tyre warm-up a real headache, especially in qualifying. Glamour, showmanship and genuine racing combine in a uniquely American event that has quickly become one of the calendar's most talked-about nights.
