With Las Vegas quickly becoming a mecca for professional sports, Formula One is looking to host a race on the Las Vegas Strip.
A source with intimate knowledge of the situation told the Review-Journal the prospects of an F1 race happening on the Strip are “very real.” Talks have been occurring on the matter for at least six months, the source said.
Race officials are eyeing possibly starting the race at the Bellagio near Flamingo Road and heading north. The portion of the Strip would be temporarily shut down to host the race.
F1 apparently isn’t looking at the Las Vegas race as a one-time event.
