A huge report into the Las Vegas GP has been published, outlining what was done well, and what wasn't, for the first race on the city streets...

A 113-page report analysing the pros and cons of hosting the Las Vegas GP in the city has been explored by Clark County officials.

The report stated that the Las Vegas GP produced the largest global TV audience in Las Vegas history, and made a total economic impact of $884 million. However, there were plenty of challenges and obstacles too. The report detailed various government agencies, law enforcement, and public works issues flagged – such as from water boards, the fire departments, and public transportation.

This disruption resulted in bus routes needing diversions, affecting up to 25 thousand customers daily, and causing “up to” 60-minute” delays.Other issues highlighted in the report included a lack of clarity as to which F1 entity was overseeing what area of organisation, ie. FOM, the FIA, or the LVGP company.
