FORMULA 1 EXTENDS LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX DEAL UNTIL 2037
Formula 1 has announced a new long-term agreement that will keep the Las Vegas Grand Prix on the Formula 1 calendar until the end of the 2037 season. The extension confirms the race’s importance as one of the sport’s biggest events in the United States and strengthens Formula 1’s presence in the country.
Since returning to the championship in 2023, the Las Vegas Grand Prix has quickly become one of the most popular races on the calendar. The event takes place on the famous Las Vegas Strip, where drivers race past well-known landmarks such as the Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Wynn Las Vegas, and The Venetian. The 6.2-kilometer circuit allows cars to reach speeds of more than 350 km/h.
The race has attracted large crowds every year since its return. All three editions held between 2023 and 2025 were sold out, helping make Las Vegas one of Formula 1’s top destinations worldwide. The event combines racing, entertainment, business, and tourism, attracting fans, celebrities, and industry leaders from around the world.
On the track, Max Verstappen won the race in 2023 and 2025, while George Russell took victory in 2024. The 2024 event was particularly exciting, featuring 113 overtakes and seeing Verstappen secure his fourth consecutive Formula 1 World Championship. In F1 Academy, Doriane Pin claimed the title in 2025.
According to Formula 1, the Las Vegas Grand Prix has generated a total economic impact of $3.2 billion for Southern Nevada since its return. In 2025 alone, the event produced $43 million in state and local tax revenue, including $15 million that supported local schools.
The event has also contributed to the local community through the Las Vegas Grand Prix Foundation, which has donated more than $2 million to non-profit organizations and provided educational opportunities for students throughout the region. The Grand Prix Plaza, a large Formula 1 attraction in Las Vegas, helps connect students with STEM education and motorsport-related learning experiences.
Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali welcomed the new agreement and praised the success of the event. He said the Las Vegas Grand Prix has established itself as a leading destination for world-class racing and entertainment while making a strong contribution to the local economy and community. Domenicali added that Formula 1 always believed Las Vegas would become a key part of its future in the United States and said the sport is excited to continue growing the event in the years ahead.
