Formula 1 didn’t enjoy a smooth first day of running in Las Vegas with FP1 abandoned before fans were ejected from the grandstands minutes before the second outing got underway.
Sergio Perez apologizes to the fans for the disruptive opening day at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, where practice was abandoned after just eight minutes due to damage caused by a loose manhole cover.
