      Yeah that was a bit weird. Hopefully they don’t do that going forward. But knowing Vegas, they’ll probably helicopter them to the top of [insert casino here] to do the interviews next year. Then have them squirrel suit down to the paddock for the trophy ceremony.

    I had no faith that this venue was going to be good. And I was wrong. What a great race.

      Race was great. Track is great. Show is the typical US nonsense on another level. Some like it, some hate it. I don’t doubt it’s good for $$$ but for the locals it’s a disaster. Unless you’re running a hotel on the Strip of course.

        Yea. There’s still a lot about the event that is pretty shitty, but the racing is not one of those things.

    Is there no trophy ceremony? So weird.

    Edit: This is so weird. Long ass gap between end of race and interviews because they had to be done in front of the Bellagio. Race results shown before the trophy ceremony because of another long gap.

    If you ever wanted to see the back of the neck of the drivers during a podium, this is your chance

    No screen at the back looks weird with all those randoms behind them.

    Edit: ok, didn’t realise they were on those construction thingies. I guess it’s nice more people get to look at the podium like that at the event. Smart change.
