So what are your predictions?
https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article/what-is-the-weather-forecast-for-the-2025-las-vegas-grand-prix.3K6y5zmuYyNFE02ziubMiB

My predictions:

1. VER
2. RUS
3. LEC.
4. NOR
5. ANT
6. HAD
7. ALO
8. HAM
9. LAW
10. HUL

The wildcards for me are BOR and TSU - they have the car but do they have the fortitude to put it in the top 10? GAS will probably put in an amazing Q lap but will struggle at race pace and be quickly passed by the rest of the mid pack. I get the feeling Williams might struggle here, but am happy to be wrong.

Wow, great timing, ENJOY!!!

But yes, bring a coat, the desert gets very chilly at night this time a year.

They should make Vegas an early summer race. It's a great walking town.
Pain . Too bad (!)

Piastri should say to Stella that 'its not good enough' following the way they have handled things with him, in one particular case asking or rather telling him to let Norris through after they themselves flunked up in the pits.
What are they going to do, give him a hundred lines writing you must not question us?

I am really excited for the 2025 Las Vegas GP this year. The night racing on the Strip always feels unreal, and with the schedule shaping up to be even more fan friendly, it looks like it could be one of the best editions yet. The weather in Vegas should be perfect for the weekend which makes watching the race even more enjoyable. If anyone is planning to go, the guide on using Amex Access for trackside perks is actually super helpful and breaks down things like the lounge and exclusive merch in a really clear way. Overall, the whole weekend is starting to feel bigger and better than last year, and I can’t wait to see how the race plays out under the lights.

Piastri's first win was given to him by the team over a flunked pit stop. He needs to stop complaining and stop crashing. He's standing in his own way of the championship.

Very fair point. If not for team orders, he'd never have won that race. Fact is, he's not in F2 anymore, and although like F2 his car is the best, there is now competition, and the pressure is getting to him. Seems the longevity of the season is again wearing on him like it did last year. Had a decent 1st half (like anyone would have in that car) and then started falling off bit by bit.

It's not only that MAX agrees with me in that the Piastri situation is quite bizarre and the main thing is 'it's not as he has forgotten how do drive' glares out to fans in the know.
We saw the papaya top mens faces when Norris 4 car broke down and even when he saw himself out hitting the rear of the 81 car, to me it was as if they had already decided for planning that its Norris for the championship.
MAX and I are convinced that Oscar is being sidelined by papaya as he is more than capable of challenging Lando so let's make no mistake about that.

I actually think Nor has adapted to the car better than Pia. Early in the year Nor didnt like the way the car handled whereas Pia did, but whatever they did with the suspension and front wing, Nor has gelled with it while Pia has consistently been inconsistent. I really believe the pressure has absolutely crushed him. While he tried to make some bold statements about 'rather be where I am than them' really was just a cover up for the fact that he was shaking in his racing boots.
Either way, let's hope they both find themselves being squeezed, in the wall (not hurt of course) or with mechanical failures in the coming races.
