Las Vegas Grand Prix 2025 Schedule

This is going to be a race that is perhaps about as interesting as it is definitive in the context of the world championship for the current year. How? Pretty obvious much like seeing sunrise in the morning and sunset in the evening. Lando Norris enters the third-ever Las Vegas Grand Prix for the sport with a clear 24 point advantage over his teammate. Piastri, who should win an Oscar for being persistent, patient and unperturbed much beyond his age for the better part of this season, has everything to lose. And yet, at the same time, everything to gain. But how does he do that? By asking Verstappen to go to Nurburgring and race under that German pseudonym? Ha! That is hardly even the case; as the defending world champion and let’s not forget, an earner of a lot of unnecessary hate isn’t realistically going to win this year’s drivers’ title anyway. Miracles can happen. But they don’t generally do in Formula 1 where drivers, not Unicorns go wheel-to-wheel. Having said that, Norris versus Piastri, whose name rhymes with pastry could still be the most dominant talking point about the third last race of what has been (thus far) a really incredible season. But for the Australian will Las Vegas fetch a sweet feeling, much like that of a mouthwatering chocolate cake, the likes of which would tantalise the tastebuds of those who love to worry about weight management whilst doing ever so little for it?

Or will the celebrated night safari under the bright lights of the Nevadan desert generate a cool result for either among – hypothetically speaking- Mercedes’ George Russell or Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc?

Leclerc, on the one hand, knows what it means to taste some success here having stepped onto the podium at the beating heart of Nevada. On the other hand, it was George Russell, lest we forget, who aced the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Not Sainz, not Lewis in his last year at Mercedes either; it was the 2024 Vegas pole sitter George Russell, the man from King’s Lynn in England who bossed the salubrious and ravishing Grand Prix exactly twelve months ago. Even as that meant Ferrari’s Sainz tussling with a lot many on the grid as do few others genuinely gifted F1 talents to claim a podium, where Ferrari- not the author of this piece- should be asked whether the fine result was even considered so by the famed Constructor?

Having said all the above, what’s also interesting to note this time around the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix is that prior to the start of the Grand Prix here last year, it was Verstappen who was comfortably ahead in the drivers’ standings (393 when he entered Vegas, 2024) over Lando Norris, then in second with 361 points.

But how time changes, doesn’t it? The very driver who had exclaimed (perhaps perceptibly with a bittersweet feeling) upon losing last year’s championship at Abu Dhabi with Verstappen having claimed the title (and how), “Next year, I will be world champion” is in the drivers’ title lead with Oscar Piastri pursuing his experienced McLaren teammate. Great wins at Mexico and Brazil, the fighter in Norris has awakened and only Piastri’s timely and much needed fightback can now lead to some sort of a damage limitation.

Meanwhile, Max, with thunderous wins, such as the world record breaking drive at Monza, despite not having the best car possible (something that’s quite evident) has withered away; Lando Norris’s MCL 39 hardly coming under even the remotest sign of pressure. So where does that leave us fans with what’s to come?

What else but the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix schedule. And here’s where you can watch it ahead this weekend as the Sin city will perhaps unveil racers and sinners, triers and doers, the ones who in their pursuit of speed also claim ballsy records and sell a dummy, to borrow a phrase from Mr. Martin Brundle and Mr. David Croft.

So if you are a fan from India, not a fanboy, well, okay, you can be that as well (as GST, for the moment is still not applicable on being one), where can you watch the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix and what is your Las Vegas Grand Prix schedule:
