F1 fans have been counting the days until they could watch cars battle down the Las Vegas strip, and one of the most anticipated races of the year is finally here.
Sunday’s Las Vegas Grand Prix is scheduled to start at 1:00 a.m. ET / 10 p.m. PT on ESPN. You can stream the race on Fubo.
Why is the race starting so late? Officials explained that’s it’s all about the European TV audience. A 1:00 a.m. ET race start allows fans in London and much of Europe to enjoy an early morning start, while F1 fans in Asia will have perhaps the best viewing window. The on-site experience of American fans is, unfortunately, a secondary concern.
Here’s the starting lineup for Sunday’s race:
- Charles Leclerc (Ferrari)
- Max Verstappen (Red Bull)
- George Russell (Mercedes)
- Pierre Gasly (Alpine)
- Alexander Albon (Williams)
- Logan Sargeant (Williams)
