Las Vegas Strip Circuit
Las Vegas Circuit Map & Guide
One of the new additions to the F1 calendar in recent seasons is the Las Vegas GP. A unique circuit, the track runs along the famous Las Vegas strip with F1 cars flying past famous and iconic Vegas locations such as Caesar’s Palace and the Bellagio fountain. Another night race with the walls close by and cars reaching speeds of almost 360km/h on the back straight. Being held at night and in November, cooler conditions are enjoyed by drivers and spectators alike. Las Vegas’ reputation precedes itself and the addition of an F1 race through the streets has added to the already exceeding glitz and glamour.
While each of our Las Vegas Grand Prix Packages comes with a pre-defined grandstand ticket, we’ve created this Las Vegas F1 Track guide to help you choose an alternative.
