The Las Vegas Grand Prix will be soaked in glitz, glamour and celebrity appearances \u2013 but it isn\u2019t Max Verstappen\u2019s cup of tea.<\/p>\n

This weekend\u2019s event, which will be held across the famous Strip in Sin City, officially got underway overnight with a lavish opening ceremony. It saw the 10 F1 driver pairings appear on lifts erected on the start-finish straight and then quickly disappear again. <\/p>\n

Verstappen and his Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez were last to appear, with the world champion looking rather bored as he gave a disinterested wave to the crowd. The Dutchman, who snubbed a red carpet event at a Vegas hotel, has given a withering verdict on the razzmatazz of the weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me you can all skip these kinds of things,\u201d said Verstappen. \u201cIt\u2019s just standing up there, [you] look like a clown. I don\u2019t like all the things around it. I\u2019m looking forward to trying to do the best I can but I\u2019m not looking forward to this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Verstappen has \u201cno problem\u201d with the staging of the Las Vegas GP but said the sideshow around it is \u201cjust not really my thing\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI fully understand and you can look at it two ways – business side or sport side,\u201d he said. \u201cSo, of course I understand their side of it. I\u2019m just voicing my opinion on the performance side of things.\u201d<\/p>\n

Verstappen\u2019s view is not echoed by Red Bull stablemate Daniel Ricciardo of the sister AlphaTauri team. The Aussie, a fantastic of all things Stateside, said: \u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong, I like the races where you can stay out and probably rent an Airbnb, a bit isolated, whatever \u2013 but I\u2019m a sucker for Vegas. So, being here, it\u2019s pretty cool.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m more in awe that they put this together. We drove on the track last night, to have a little bit of a look, because a track walk at 2am is too late for me, but The Strip has that long DRS straight. It\u2019s probably going to be the most exciting straight we\u2019ve driven on. I\u2019m excited, yeah.\u201d<\/p>\n
