In a dazzling display of logistics, the Las Vegas Grand Prix is set to redefine F1 extravagance this Saturday. CEO Renee Wilm declares, “When you consider the speeds the cars will reach, with the backdrop of the nightlife that is Las Vegas – there will be no spectacle like it on Earth.” 🌎 The 3.8-mile circuit weaves through iconic Strip landmarks, offering a unique backdrop and speeds up to 217mph.

F1 faced the puzzle of minimizing disruption in one of the most popular tourist destinations in the US. 🎰 Geobrugg blocks and a temporary bridge over Flamingo Road were solutions, but construction boss Terry Miller notes, “We did a lot of work at night, but that’s difficult in a city that never sleeps!”

The Vegas twist? Liberty Media's long-term investment includes a permanent 300,000 sq ft Paddock Club and an Opening Ceremony rivaling the Super Bowl. CEO Wilm proudly states, "We’re creating a new legacy here." 🌟🎶
