The Formula 1 season is nearing its end, with the final triple header on the horizon. This triptych, which will decide the 2025 championship, kicks off with the race weekend in fabulous Las Vegas. For the third year in a row, the gambling city opens its doors to Formula 1. After a hot weekend in São Paulo with plenty of rainfall, it promises to cool down significantly in the Nevada desert.

The Las Vegas Grand Prix, the jewel in the crown of the FOM, is once again being held on the Las Vegas Strip Circuit. The race weekend is primarily a party for the wealthy American, who can spend his money freely on numerous Formula 1 events in the gambling city. Whether this also guarantees spectacle on the track remains to be seen. One thing is certain: the conditions have hardly changed compared to previous editions – it will be relatively cold again.

Weather Forecast for the Las Vegas Grand Prix

The first free practice sessions are scheduled for Thursday evening. Note: due to the time difference, these sessions take place on Friday morning in the Netherlands. Some rain may fall in the evening on the opening day; the chance of precipitation is currently around 45 percent. The temperature hovers around 11 degrees Celsius, which is not exactly typical for Formula 1 standards. It will remain chilly in Las Vegas for the rest of the weekend.

The third free practice session follows on Friday evening, immediately followed by the crucial qualification. It remains dry in the desert, although it will be chilly again with a maximum temperature of about 13 degrees Celsius. At night, the mercury even drops to 9 degrees. Finally, the Grand Prix takes place on Saturday evening, through the streets of Las Vegas. Then it becomes slightly more pleasant, with temperatures of at least 14 degrees Celsius. The chance of rain is negligible for now.
