F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Prediction and Odds 2024
The F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix predictions see us grappling with a relatively new entrant to the F1 season calendar.
Of course, if we want to nit pick, this isn’t 100% accurate — the first F1 Las Vegas GP was actually held way back in 1981. However, between drivers suffering heat exhaustion and the tiny crowds that turned up for the event, the F1 Vegas Grand Prix was soon canceled after its second edition in 1982, and didn’t make a return until last year.
But now, we’ll be taking our F1 Las Vegas odds and predictions back to the desert state, with the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP seeing the prestigious motor race hitting the streets of Las Vegas for only the second time after a 30+ year hiatus.
2024 F1 Las Vegas GP Information, Analysis
F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Prediction Caesars Palace Course Details
When the F1 GP first came to Vegas, it was held at what was affectionately known as the Caesars Palace Car Park circuit — a literal name describing the precise location.
Since then, the original Caesars Palace carpark has been the site of major developments, meaning the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP predictions will have to take into account an entirely different circuit to that of the old days.
For this year’s edition, the drivers will be taking a 50-lap, 6.12km tour of Las Vegas for a total of 305.88km of fast, street racing action. Along the way, drivers will be passing by Caesars Palace, along with other Vegas icons such as the Bellagio and Venetian.
As already mentioned, the race will be a fast one. With just 14 turns on a 6km circuit, the 2024 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix will be home to long straights and plenty of tense overtaking action. This will put it right up there with Monza in terms of flat-out race speed, meaning this will be a quick, intense race.
As for the weather, Drivers will probably have an easier time than in the heat exhaustion-inducing 1981 and 1982 editions, which were both held in October. Pushed back to late November, average Vegas temperatures are about 8 degrees (Celcius) cooler, with averages topping out at a comfortable 21 degrees Celcius.
Drivers will also have a much easier time physically compared with the first editions held in Caesar’s car park. That race also featured 14 turns, but they were much tighter and all crammed into a track not much more than half the length of the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP, which put an enormous amount of strain on the drivers’ necks.
2024 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Odds to Win — Who to Watch
While the 2024 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix will be just the second time the F1 has taken to this Vegas street racing circuit, its layout, and expected speed, mean we should see a similar race to Monza.
That race, last held just months ago, was a tight one, with the top three finishers (Verstappen, Pistari, Norris) all finishing within 6.153 seconds of each other.
Max Verstappen Odds
Max Verstappen has been in a bit of a slump lately, but he’s still certainly capable of dominating a race, so count him among the favorites to win the 2024 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Lando Norris Betting Tips
Lando Norris is currently second in the Driver’s Championship and has been performing consistently lately, including a third place finish at the 2024 Monza race. We have every reason to suspect he’ll do similarly well at the 2024 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Charles LeClerc Prediction
Charles LeClerc has been a consistent performer this F1 season and has certainly shown he’s quite capable of winning when it counts. He also won just months ago at the roughly comparable Monza Grand Prix where he just got his nose in front of Pistari and Norris at the finish line.
Oscar Piastri Win Probability
Finishing on the podium at Monza bodes well for Oscar Piastri’s odds at Vegas, so look out — he could be a real challenger for the podium, if not first place.
