F1 in Las Vegas: when is the race, how much do tickets cost and where you can buy them?
There is nothing quite like ‘Sin City,’ which is probably why Formula 1 has to hold a new Grand Prix there.
Las Vegas has seen Formula 1 action before, but this time is set to be quite different with a street circuit that will give fans everything they want in a Grand Prix.
The Las Vegas Grand Prix
In Las Vegas in 2023, a 6.12km/3.8 miles, 17-turn street circuit awaits drivers in downtown’s heart. With three straights and two DRS zones, the circuit is expected to offer a unique challenge to drivers as it winds and bends its way past some of the city’s most famous locations, such as Caesars Palace, the Bellagio, and the Venetian.
Where speeds are concerned, the track is expected to go neck and neck with Formula 1′s original ‘Temple of Speed’ - Italy’s Autodromo Nazionale Monza, with an estimated top speed of 212mph/342kmh. As you can imagine, this will force drivers to take a strategic approach. Expect to see teams opting for a low-downforce set-up in Las Vegas to ensure that they can maximize their cars’ performance while attempting to open up on the city’s world-famous Strip. The Las Vegas Grand Prix will be staged between November 16th and 18th.
How much do tickets cost for the Las Vegas Grand Prix?
According to Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak, Las Vegas expects “170,000 visitors on race weekend to account for 400,000 nights of hotel rooms and an estimated economic impact of half a billion dollars.” With that in mind, you can probably guess that ticket demand is at an all-time high.
The starting price for General Admission tickets is $500, which includes “all-inclusive food and non-alcoholic beverages.” In case you’re wondering, the General Admission area is located within the MSG Sphere section of the circuit, which offers a view of turns 5-9. Additionally, reports have indicated that depending on ticket demand, there may be official “Fan Zones” located elsewhere in the city, where fans who do not have tickets to the race can gather to watch the action unfold on a large-screen television. Here’s a breakdown of what the total range prices look like:
