Bobby Epstein is again gearing up to host the United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas – and Max Verstappen is playing a key role.
The boss of the Circuit of the Americas has stated that ticket sales for the United States Grand Prix have seen a surge, credited to Max Verstappen’s recent lack of race victories. Verstappen, who won 19 of 22 races in 2023, has gone on a winless streak of eight races, his worst since 2020. This drop in Red Bull’s performance has allowed Lando Norris to enter championship contention, trailing Verstappen by 52 points. The upcoming grand prix weekend in Austin, alongside Eminem’s performance and a college football game, is anticipated to be the biggest ever for sports entertainment. The organizers are expecting a large crowd, potentially exceeding the 420,000 fans that visited during the 2023 GP weekend. The event is hyped as a unique combination of racing, music, and football, promising an unforgettable experience for attendees seeking excitement and entertainment.
