How to follow Las Vegas Grand Prix on the BBC

Lights out for Sunday's Las Vegas Grand Prix is at 06:00 GMT

Formula 1 is back after a three-week break, with a final triple-header to close out the 2024 season.

The second running of the Las Vegas Grand Prix at the Strip Circuit is first up from 22-24 November.

Following his stunning win from 17th place at a chaotic Sao Paulo Grand Prix earlier this month, Red Bull's Max Verstappen now leads Lando Norris in the drivers' championship by 62 points with 86 still available.

The Dutchman will secure a fourth consecutive world title if he leaves Las Vegas with a lead of at least 60 points.

What is the weather forecast for Las Vegas?

The 6.2km street circuit winds through the iconic Las Vegas Strip and past famous landmarks like Caesars Palace and the Bellagio

Last time out in Interlagos, the weather caused an incident-strewn event, but the early forecast for this weekend in Las Vegas suggests it will be dry across all three days of track action.

While the risk of rain is zero, conditions in Sin City when qualifying and the race take place are very cool at night in November, so teams and drivers can expect minimum temperatures of about 9C to 11C
