The opening of the Las Vegas Grand Prix was disrupted when the first practice session was called off after just nine minutes due to unsafe track conditions. Carlos Sainz hit a loose drain cover, resulting in significant damage to his car and leading to the session being cancelled. Other drivers, including Esteban Ocon, also reported damage to their cars from loose drain covers. The governing body will inspect the circuit and determine the cause of the problem before making any necessary changes. Only one driver, Logan Sargeant, did not have the opportunity to participate in the session.
