Clark County commissioners Tuesday unanimously approved recognizing the Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix as an annual event for at least 10 years.
The approval opens up the door for the race, already signed to a three-year deal, to be possible for at least the next decade, if not longer.
“We anticipate a lifetime together in partnership,” commission Chairman Jim Gibson said. “This will open the pathway to be able to do it for at least 10 years. Beyond that I’m sure those who succeed us will see the volume in what we’ve done and continue it forever.”
The first of what’s set to be many to come will be held Nov. 16-18 on a street circuit that runs in and around the Strip.
