Formula 1 Las Vegas schedule 2023: Times, TV channels to watch F1's Las Vegas Grand Prix race practices, qualifying

For the first time in four decades, Formula One will go racing around Sin City again during the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix. 

The third and final race of the year on US soil, expectations and excitement are sky high as race organisers look to put on a show for fans around the world. 

During the Grand Prix, the 20 drivers will race past some of the most iconic landmarks in the city on a track that is made up of part purpose-built sections coupled with a street circuit. There's also the potential for this race to be one of the coldest in recent memory as temperatures are due to plummet towards the start with the race commencing late on Saturday night local time.

Due to his 17 wins from 20 races this season, current three-time World Drivers' Championship winner Max Verstappen heads into this latest race as the bookmakers' huge favourite. 

The Dutchman has admitted to struggling in his preparation for this all-new race however, which could leave the door slightly ajar for the chasing pack to exploit. 

At the head of that is McLaren's Lando Norris who claimed another P2 finish last time out in Brazil and remains Verstappen's closest competitor of late. 

Veteran Lewis Hamilton will also fancy his chances here with no driver having any prior experience of the track, whilst Sergio Perez and Ferrari pair Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc will also be desperate to take the first win at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
