F1 drivers completed a fantastic show run to launch Las Vegas GP amid fans enjoying every bit of the sporting action.
With the F1 Las Vegas GP set to take place on November 18 in 2023, the sport paid a visit on Saturday evening as part of a launch event coinciding with a show run. Mercedes had both Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, while Red Bull had Sergio Perez driving.
Both the Mercedes pair started off the show with a run on ‘The Strip’ in the F1 safety car, after which Russell went first followed by Perez in the Red Bull, as Hamilton capped off last. The German outfit had extra ‘neon’ lights on the underside of their car.
The trio made their way to the stage where they joked around a bit, before paving way to Williams’ Alexander Albon and Jost Capito and then Haas’ Guenther Steiner. The night was capped off by Las Vegas GP promoters and Stefano Domenicali pressing the button.
