Why Formula 1 Is The Biggest Mistake Vegas Ever Made

It’s going to be great long term for the city and F1. Year 1 at any new location is always a shit show. Texas year 1 was a nightmare.

I think rest of the world will be amazed how the race will look. Just the lighting alone looks good. I cannot believe what Vegas has accomplished in 6 months. I saw this drone coverage from Fox News in Vegas - WOW.

Americans: the biggest whiners on earth

If possible, I will vote against any politician that supports F1. It's been a disaster!

Actually I think it will showcase the city like never before.

Until you see how it affects everyone's pockets for the better, even yours. That tune will change. 🎶

From a monetary standpoint, F1 could actually really help out Vegas in the long run. People are too busy thinking about how the strip looks, and honestly only the tourists to come here for the first time Really care about that. I just want things organized going forward.

What they’ve done to prepare this year has been insane. But to already say it’s been a mistake before the first race is a mistake all unto itself. I’m not happy about all the changes, but it deserves at least one race before having an opinion or at least calling it a mistake.

The greed from F1 is crazy.. Not letting by standers view.. Should be a lot smoother by year 3.. Formula 1 racing simply is not that compelling to ask for those prices..

This was very well put together. Worth mentioning a lot of the public benefit from the over $1 billion economic activity is from taxes on those sales which is a fraction of the total and if there $50 million or more in public cost it takes away a large chunk of that
