There are various options for watching F1 Grand Prix races live. The choices multiply when the race is in Las Vegas, a desert city built as an entertainment destination.

I was one of a small group of journalists invited by the Las Vegas Grand Prix to experience an ultimate VIP race weekend, with tickets for luxury race-viewing and other exclusive race-related experiences. The purpose of the trip was to show how Las Vegas goes all out to be one of the foremost F1 locations.

F1 Qatar Grand Prix results: Yellow flags, penalties, and Max wins again
Harsh penalties changed the outcomes
Formula 1 race cars during the 2023 Qatar Grand Prix.

The F1 2024 Qatar Grand Prix was an exciting race but disappointing for key Formula 1 players. Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who won the pole position in the Qualifying event, had to start at P2 because of an F1 Track Steward penalty. Still, he won the race anyway, adding to his already Championship-winning points margin over all other drivers.

Driver disappointments

The F1 2024 Qatar Grand Prix Sprint race on November 30, 2024, and the  Qualifying event for the December 1 Grand Prix were both competitive with unexpected finishes. McLaren driver Lando Norris moved aside to let teammate Oscar Piastri finish first in the Sprint race, and Red Bull's Max Verstappen surprised everyone, including himself, when he won the pole position in the Grand Prix starting grid.
Qatar Sprint race results
Only six of the 24 Grand Prix races in 2024 were scheduled to include Sprint races. F1 includes Sprint races to add excitement to the weekend and give the drivers and teams a chance to pick up extra Championship points. The first eight finishers win sprint race points. The winner gets eight points, and each successive finisher gets one less. The driver who comes in eighth then gets one point.

In Saturday's Sprint race, McLaren's Lando Norris was leading when, just before crossing the finish line, he slowed down, moved over, and allowed teammate Oscar Piastri to win.
