VIDEO – A simulator ride on the new Las Vegas circuit

As announced in recent weeks, Las Vegas will have its own Grand Prix. Starting next year, F1 will return to the gaming capital of the world to hold its first race since 1982 and Michele Alboreto's victory with Tyrrell.

This time, the Grand Prix will not take place at Caesars Palace but throughout the city. 6,12 kilometers long and made up of 14 turns, the new Las Vegas route will allow actors to pass in front of the most famous casinos and hotels in the city of Sin City.

With a long straight stretching across the Las Vegas Strip, drivers will easily be able to exceed 340 km/h according to the organizers. The 3^e edition of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, the first in 42 years, will be contested over 50 laps on a Saturday evening.

If F1 only published simple visuals, content creator Mitsos, familiar with simracing, was able to create the course for the new Las Vegas circuit on a simulator. It thus offers us the possibility of having a taste while waiting for the first official images from Liberty Media and the promoters. The lap time and speeds are not to be taken into consideration since it is only a simulation but one thing is certain, it will go very quickly on the streets in the city of sin.
