F1 Tracks: Las Vegas Street Circuit location, length, records, history

In November 2024, the teams will head to the Silver City in November for the second race on the Las Vegas Street Circuit.

Winding its way past landmarks such as Caesars Palace and the Bellagio, the Las Vegas Grand Prix will take place at night on a fast-paced, 3.8-mile street circuit which incorporates a huge 1.18-mile flat-out section down the iconic Las Vegas Strip. 

The counter-clockwise circuit boasts 17 corners taken at breakneck velocity, with average speeds expected to be similar to the Autodromo Nazionale Monza, nicknamed Formula One's Temple of Speed. 

The best overtaking opportunity is likely to be the heavy braking zone at the end of the long straight, turning into a tight left-hander before another short straight down Harmon Avenue.
