Rev your engines because F1 racing is coming to Las Vegas

F1 cars will race between the streets of the iconic Las Vegas Strip in November next year.

The night race will take place in November 2023. Las Vegas becomes the third U.S. city to host a race, after Miami and Austin.

The city previously hosted races in 1981 and 1982 but this will be the first time F1 cars will race on the iconic Las Vegas Strip.

“That’s going to be a pretty hardcore event.”

The 14-turn track will run for 3.8 miles, or 6.12km. Drivers can expect top speeds of up to 212mph, or 342km/h.

“Iconic Las Vegas and Formula 1, the pinnacle of motorsport, is the perfect marriage of speed and glamour,” says Liberty Media President and CEO Greg Maffei.

“Our confidence in this unique opportunity is evident in our decision to assume the promoter role for the Las Vegas Grand Prix in partnership with Live Nation,” he says.

The design features three straights, a high-speed cornering sequence and a single chicane section, with the Grand Prix to be run over 50 laps.

AlphaTauri’s Pierre Gasly also described the event as “insane”.

US stocks tumble as tech giants report uneven earnings, prompting fears of a looming market correction.


US stocks have taken a sharp dive as investors grow nervous about stretched valuations and uneven earnings reports from tech giants. Major Wall Street banks, including Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, are warning that the rally could be nearing a 10% correction – a wake-up call for traders betting on unstoppable market momentum.

Nvidia, the world’s most valuable public company, dropped nearly 4%, wiping out around $200 billion in market value. Meanwhile, Palantir slid 6%, dragging other AI and semiconductor names lower. Even gold — a traditional safe haven — dipped 1.6%, signaling widespread investor anxiety.

Bitcoin also broke below the $100,000 mark for the first time since June, underscoring how jittery markets have become. As earnings season unfolds and the US government shutdown looms, investors are questioning whether the bull run that lifted the S&P 35% since April has finally run out of steam.

Dick Cheney dies at 84: The end of an era in American power

Former Vice President Dick Cheney dies at 84, leaving a controversial legacy in American politics and national security.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney dies at 84, leaving a controversial legacy in American politics and national security.


Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney has died at the age of 84, marking the end of one of the most influential — and controversial — political careers in modern American history. Cheney served under four Republican presidents, most notably George W. Bush, where he became known as one of the most powerful vice presidents in U.S. history.

His family confirmed he passed away from complications related to pneumonia and heart disease. Cheney’s decades in Washington were defined by his hardline approach to national security and his role in shaping America’s response to the September 11 attacks.

Even after leaving office, Cheney remained a strong defender of his policies, particularly the 2003 invasion of Iraq. His passing leaves behind a complicated legacy — one that reshaped U.S. foreign policy and continues to influence Republican politics today.

Both firms predicted potential market pullbacks, with drawdowns of 10% to 20% possible within the next two years. Saglimbene noted a narrow market breadth in recent months, suggesting limited alternatives if a downturn occurs in the tech sector.
