Formula 1 fans in the UK will need to prepare for early starts to watch the 2026 Las Vegas Grand Prix live. Qualifying is set for 4am GMT on Saturday, November 21, with the race following at 4am GMT on Sunday, November 22.
The Las Vegas Strip Circuit is the first of a triple-header that concludes the F1 season, preceding the Qatar and Abu Dhabi Grands Prix. Mercedes has already secured both the 2026 Drivers' and Constructors' Championships, with Kimi Antonelli becoming the youngest ever F1 world champion.
Despite the titles being decided, competition remains tight for other positions. Max Verstappen holds a 17-point lead over George Russell in the battle for second in the standings, while Red Bull is 17 points ahead of McLaren in the constructors' race for third.
The Las Vegas track, a 3.8-mile street circuit with 17 corners, is making its fourth appearance on the F1 calendar since 2023. Temperatures during the late November event are expected to be chilly in the evenings, dropping towards single figures, with no rain currently forecast.
