The 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix (officially known as the Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix 2023) was a Formula One motor race that was held on November 18, 2023, at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit in Paradise, Nevada, United States. It was the twenty-first and penultimate race of the 2023 Formula One World Championship and the first running of the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Charles Leclerc took pole position, with fellow Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz qualifying second. However, Sainz's car was damaged during the first practice session when he hit an insufficiently secured metal drain cover. The resulting damage forced him to exceed his part allocation for energy stores, resulting in a 10-place grid penalty. Max Verstappen therefore started second in, and ultimately won, the race, followed by Leclerc and Sergio Pérez, in a hard fought battle that saw multiple changes in race leader. Pérez secured second in the Driver's Championship, giving Red Bull Racing their first ever 1–2 in the Drivers' Championship.

Background

The event was held across the weekend of November 16–18. It was the twenty-first round of the 2023 Formula One World Championship and the first running of a Formula One World Championship race run under the official name of Las Vegas Grand Prix. It was the 1,100th Formula One Grand Prix since the inaugural season in Шаблон:F1.[1]

The event marked the first Formula One race in Las Vegas since the 1982 Caesars Palace Grand Prix and the first street race in the city since the 2007 Vegas Grand Prix Champ Car. It took place around the Las Vegas Strip on a brand-new street track.[2] It was the third and final Grand Prix in the United States to take place on the Шаблон:F1 calendar after the Miami and the United States Grands Prix, and marked the first time since Шаблон:F1 that there was three races held in the United States in a Formula One season.[3] The Grand Prix began at 22:00 local time (UTC−8) on Saturday, November 18, 2023, meaning it was the first Formula One World Championship Grand Prix race to start on a Saturday since the 1985 South African Grand Prix.[4]

Circuit design and layout

Шаблон:Main The Шаблон:Convert[5] street circuit runs counterclockwise and features 17 corners and a Шаблон:Convert straight.[6][7] It starts in a former parking lot which has been bought by Formula One for $240 million and developed into the pits and paddock area, and also contains the permanent part of the circuit.[8] The track goes down the Las Vegas Strip.[9] The Шаблон:Convert flat-out section with two straights and a slight sweeping left curve goes past some of Las Vegas's most famous hotels and casinos.[10]

Championship standings before the race

Coming into the weekend, Max Verstappen led the Drivers' Championship with 524 points. He led his teammate Sergio Pérez by 266 points and Lewis Hamilton by a further 32 points. Hamilton was ahead of Fernando Alonso in fourth by 28 points, with Lando Norris in fifth, three points behind. Red Bull Racing led the Constructors' Championship with 782 points, 400 points ahead of Mercedes and a further 20 points ahead of Ferrari. McLaren, in fourth, was behind Ferrari by 80 points and ahead of Aston Martin, in fifth, by 21 points.[11]

Entrants

Шаблон:See also The drivers and teams were the same as the season entry list with the exception of Daniel Ricciardo, who replaced Nyck de Vries at AlphaTauri starting at the Hungarian Grand Prix.[12][13]

Tyre choices

Шаблон:Further Tyre supplier Pirelli brought the C3, C4, and C5 tyre compounds (designated hard, medium, and soft, respectively), the three softest compounds in their dry tyre range, for teams to use at the event.[14]

Practice

Three free practice sessions were held for the event. The first free practice session was held on November 16, 2023, at 20:30 local time (UTC−8).[15] Charles Leclerc was fastest ahead of Nico Hülkenberg and Kevin Magnussen. The session was red-flagged after Carlos Sainz Jr. stopped on track due to hitting a loose metal cover on the track surface; the session was abandoned to fix the issue.[16] Sainz's car floor was damaged extensively; as was Esteban Ocon's.[17] The damage caused to Sainz's energy store resulted in him having to take a third unit, outside the two permitted. This led to Sainz receiving a 10-place grid penalty for the race.[18]

The second free practice session was held on November 17, 2023, and was scheduled for 00:00.[15] The session was extended from 60 to 90 minutes and was delayed by two and a half hours while the issues from the first free practice were rectified.[19] The session was topped by Leclerc ahead of Sainz and Fernando Alonso.[20]

The third free practice session was held on November 17, 2023, at 20:30. The session was red-flagged with three minutes remaining, when Alexander Albon stopped on the track after hitting the wall; it was not resumed and was topped by George Russell, ahead of Oscar Piastri and Logan Sargeant.[21]

Following the curtailed first practice session, fans were ejected from the venue at 1:30.[22] Due to that, the second practice session was held without many fans in the grandstands.[23] Formula One CEO Stefano Domenicali issued a public statement regarding the incident.[24] The organisers of the event gave out merchandise vouchers worth $200 for the in-circuit store,[25] which led to legal action being launched by Nevada-based law firm JK Legal & Consulting.[26]

In a press conference held with team principals after the first practice session was curtailed, Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur, who was noticably irate during the session, was critical of the drain cover issues, stating that the damage to Sainz's car cost them "a fortune".[27] Conversely, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff criticised the negative feedback regarding the Grand Prix and downplayed Sainz's accident while praising Liberty Media and the organisers of the Grand Prix's efforts in setting up the event.[28] A week later, both Vasseur and Wolff were summoned to the stewards for their usage of harsh language.[29]

Qualifying

Qualifying was held on November 18, 2023, at 00:00 local time (UTC−8).[15]

Notes

Race

The race was held on November 18, 2023, at 22:00 local time (UTC−8), and was run for 50 laps.[15][33]

Race report

Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen started on the front row of the grid. In the opening turn of the race, Verstappen forced Leclerc off the track, receiving a five-second penalty for the move. Fernando Alonso spun at that same corner and collected Valtteri Bottas, but both continued without major damage. A virtual safety car period was observed while the damage was cleaned from the track.[34] Lando Norris lost control of the rear of his car and had a heavy crash on the third lap of the race, marking his first retirement of the season. The safety car was brought out to recover his stricken McLaren MCL60. Norris went to the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada for precautionary checks and was discharged the same day.[34][35] Leclerc passed Verstappen on track before Verstappen had pitted and served the penalty. Though Leclerc extended his first tyre stint, he ultimately pitted just a few laps before a safety car came out due to an incident between George Russell and Verstappen that left debris on the track. The safety car allowed the Red Bulls and much of the rest of the grid to pit without losing significant time, reducing Leclerc's advantage.[34]

The pair of Verstappen and Leclerc fought for the lead throughout the race along with Sergio Pérez. By the end of the race, Verstappen had a small but comfortable lead with Leclerc and Pérez fighting over second. Leclerc passed Pérez on the final lap to secure second, with Pérez rounding out the podium.[34]

The third-place podium handed Pérez second place in the Driver's Championship, giving Red Bull Racing their first ever 1–2 in the Drivers' Championship. By finishing seventh, Lewis Hamilton also mathematically secured third place in the Drivers' Championship, the first time in his career he had finished a season in that position. Fellow Mercedes driver George Russell also mathematically secured his position in the Drivers' Championship at eighth, the lowest position for a Mercedes driver since Шаблон:F1.[36]
