Las Vegas, Nevada · US

A mile-and-a-half oval in the desert north of the city, reprofiled with variable banking to widen the racing line.

About Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Las Vegas Motor Speedway sits well north of the Strip and is a conventional intermediate oval in shape, but its variable banking gives drivers more than one usable line through the corners. Desert conditions dominate the weekend: track temperature swings sharply between sessions, and grip changes with it.

It is a separate venue entirely from the Formula 1 street circuit that runs through the city itself.
