F1 star slams ‘dangerous’ Las Vegas Grand Prix
Young F1 driver Oliver Bearman criticized the Las Vegas Grand Prix circuit, describing it as the ‘least enjoyable’ street track on the calendar. This weekend marks Bearman’s first race weekend on the streets of Nevada, where he voiced his disappointment after experiencing the lack of grip on the surface. He highlighted the challenges posed by the public roads’ normal use and the low temperatures in the November evenings in the desert. Bearman expressed concerns about the dangerous high-speed nature of the circuit, citing the low grip and tight walls of the street layout. The first day’s running in Vegas was red-flagged due to loose manhole covers, a recurring issue that has caused significant damage in the past. With rain expected between sessions, the track is likely to lose rubber, posing additional challenges for drivers in qualifying.
