Lewis Hamilton has explained his confusion regarding how drivers and team personnel will navigate the journey between the circuit and the city this weekend at the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

This event has been the headliner throughout the 2023 season with fans and drivers alike looking forward to F1\u2019s return to Sin City. The sport has travelled to Las Vegas on two occasions before in 1981 and 1982 for the Caesars Palace Grand Prix, but this is the first time cars will ever race on the city streets.<\/p>\n

In order to make the event – which is set to be one of the most lavish and eye-catching in F1 history – a possibility, F1 purchased land on which to build the brand-new pit building, laying the foundations for what is set to be ten seasons worth of single-seater racing in the city.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Sky Sports F1<\/em> ahead of the weekend, he said: \u201cI just don\u2019t understand how we\u2019re gonna move around this place. I don\u2019t understand how we\u2019re gonna get from the track to the hotel.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s gonna be such a compact spot [with] so many people. But I think it\u2019s gonna be wild. It\u2019s gonna be a wild experience and the best thing is just to go with an open mind, not having any pre-determined ideas of what it\u2019s gonna be like and just take it all in when you get there. Driving in [the] night lights, I\u2019m gonna feel like I\u2019m in the casino movie, so pretty cool.\u201d<\/p>\n

Not every driver has been brimming with excitement regarding this weekend\u2019s shot-stopping race in Las Vegas. Reigning world champion Max Verstappen is one of those who haven\u2019t been won over by the hype and promotion surrounding the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n
