TIPS FOR THE RACE WEEKEND

Here are some useful tips to make sure you get the most out of the Las Vegas Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas.

• The first piece of advice is clear: get there early. This is especially true on Saturday, which is the race day (yes, in Vegas the race takes place on Saturday). It is better to enjoy the atmosphere of the race on the circuit than wait in the queue.  The ideal time to arrive at the circuit is around 6 pm on the race day.
• Please note that you are not allowed to take any food or drink. However, if you are a 3-day ticket holder (regular grandstand) you should get refreshments for free (water, soft drinks and food).
• Time your trip to the circuit and really think about your journey - because of the traffic. Plan ahead for parking and ideally book it.
• Plan what you will do and where you want to go. If you're going with friends, bear in mind that, especially on race day, the mobile phone network on the circuit is overloaded and phone and data services may not work. Always arrange a rendezvous point where you can meet up if you get lost.
