Track Map
Lots of good racing throughout. Perez doing that overtake on Kmag and Lawson was phenomenal.
Ferrari and Alpine being goofy by making their drivers pit and not having tires ready.
I got to see this live and holy crap what an amazing race! I thought for sure there was about to be a red flag when they were 3-wide. Absolutely incredible to see them up close.
It is so funny to compare this crowd and their passion to the one at Monza, Silverstone, Interlagos or even COTA. These people look like students at school who are being forced to watch and cheer a play
Given that the tickets don’t sell out until a few days before the event is it plausible that most of the spectators were just people who happened to be in Las Vegas and came along because it was something to do?
Well at least they put effort in. The next races always feel like a dead crowd, to the point they might just as well not be there.
