Miami doesn't get to have all the fun in the United States in the Formula 1 world.
Two more races will take place in the USA this year, the United State Grand Prix in Austin and the Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix.
The Las Vegas iteration will take place in November. It's a 50-lap race on a 17-turn course. This will be the first Grand Prix in Las Vegas since 1982, back when it was the Caesars Palace Grand Prix. Two races were staged when the course was originally built, with Alan Jones winning in 1981 and Michele Alboreto taking the race in 1982.
The Las Vegas Grand Prix will be the penultimate race of the year, with the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix closing the season out a week later.
