Las Vegas Gp
« on: November 20, 2024, 02:12:21 PM »
Does anyone know if the race has been moved from Sunday  the 24th
to Saturday the 23rd? If so do you know when  qualifying would be?

I just ran across  this and want to make sure before I change the GP starting times

                                Thanks

After looking at it closer it may be the difference in time zones
as to why it's Sat in the US and Sun in England. I go by the start
time in England so it's had me confused...just a bit

F1, in  it's attempt to attract American fans, schedules their marque U.S. race to take place after midnight in the most densely populated parts of the country.  :confused:

I think where I was confused was I ran across a clickbait article
why did they change the race day of Las Vegas GP

To make it a night race and show off all of the glittery lights.

Looks like it's going to be 9c at race time. That's 48F for us North Americans.
Forecast said no chance of rain. Good call it rarely rains in the desert

A decent time in NZ for a change with the race at 1900 hours Sunday.  :yahoo:
