The Las Vegas Strip Circuit is the latest addition to the Formula 1 calendar. It joined the calendar in 2023 and offers a unique blend of high-speed racing and the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas.
Circuit History[]
The 3.803 mi (6.120 km) street circuit features 17 corners and a 1.181 mi (1.900 km) straight.[1][2] The circuit runs counter clockwise, and starts in a disused parking lot which will be re-developed for the pits and paddock area, and contains permanent track. The first corner is a hairpin, and after that the course bends slightly left and then into a fast right, transitioning from the permanent circuit to city streets. The cars go 0.50 mi (800 m) down Koval Lane, before entering a slow 90 degree right, and then entering a long, sweeping left which encircles the new MSG Sphere arena, before going through a left-right twisty section, that is a change from the original design, and then a slightly faster left that transitions onto Sands Avenue. The track then goes through two very fast bends on Sands Avenue before entering a slow left onto Las Vegas Boulevard, otherwise known as the Las Vegas Strip. This is a 1.181 mi (1.900 km) flat-out section with two straights and a slight sweeping left that goes past some of Las Vegas' most famous hotels and casinos. The circuit then goes through a tight series of slow corners onto Harmon Avenue, down an 0.50 mi (800 m) straight before going through a very fast left to complete the lap and transition back to the permanent track past the pits.[3]
