They are mentally in Vegas for the whole year then
Oh I saw but tbf … who wouldn’t watch Lewis getting race ready? It’s a beautiful sightI meant her being at the race and watching Lewis gear up- we already talked about the Deuxmoi anon![]()

because las vegas is a city for nightlifeCan someone explain why the race is so late in LV?
Everyone in Europe will be asleep which seems like a weird strategy.
Because they’re not trying to cater to Europe for this race… Imagine being in Asia and having all the Americas races at odd hours — yet I still watch every damn session.Can someone explain why the race is so late in LV?

To be fair, for majority of the Europe it's at 7 AM, so it's not really nighttime. It's basically the same time as Japanese or Australian GP for Europe.Can someone explain why the race is so late in LV?

The viewership ratings will be interestingbecause las vegas is a city for nightlife
they need it to be dark to show all the lights on the strip
also its on mountain time so about 2 hours later than a usual US race
basically its Australia/Japan
-Im an american and its late for me too but at least i can watch at a bar and drink like a normal person
yes, and i think it will be a good reason to argue this race should only be a one and done and then hopefully we can finally get a race on African soil.The viewership ratings will be interesting![]()
at least miami was comicalI’m absolutely sick of Vegas tbh and it hasn’t even started

And not dangerous. The silence from Liberty Media about the construction workers is really disgusting and even if the times were more agreeable it’s really put me off watching, I can’t support stuff like thatat least miami was comical
I also find it annoying how f1 has tried so hard to legitimise itself as an “actual sport” for years and then it goes and does stuff like this that just proves it isn’tSame![]()
It will never be seen as a Legitimate Sport in America. Which is why they have to make it a spectacle. The Austin race at least was done the right way and will always be here. They got that location right with ethe market price tag and venue. The Miami and Vegas races just aren't seriousAnd not dangerous.

Yeah Austin works, as did Indianapolis when they used to hold it there. COTA is a proper track for a start off and it strikes the right balance between it being an influencer fest and also a legitimate race. Vegas has nothing to do with racing. I’ve just seen a video of a test car trying out the track maybe like last year (it was an old spec car so had way more downforce than the current ones) and just sliding into the barriers. It’s going to be embarrassing tbhIt will never be seen as a Legitimate Sport in America. Which is why they have to make it a spectacle.

Yeah, I am leaning towards the theory that it was decided (I guess by ferrari) that one week is for Charles and one for Carlos, Carlos' one starting tomorrow and then Netflix golf etc. (Charles is more popular so if they were appearing at the same time the spotlight would still be more on Charles). Just a theory, we will see since tomorrow.Lorenzo posted photos with Charles at Yankees Stadium. Is Charles seriously everywhere this week while Carlos completely vanished? Or someone realized they have to do their promos in rounds and next time it'll be Carlos only everywhere because when they push both at once it's sus?
(not that it's not sus now, right?)
