Accommodation
The Las Vegas Grand Prix circuit literally runs down the famous Las Vegas Strip. If you’re heading to Vegas for the race weekend and need somewhere to stay, I’d recommend doing what I did and basing yourself as close to the Strip as you can. Not only does that put you right next to the circuit, it also means you’re right amongst all the best nightlife, bars, restaurants and casinos.
The blue pin on the map below highlights the location of the Strip, which forms part of the F1 track. If you pan and zoom around the map you’ll see all the available accommodation options right around the circuit in Vegas.
