In the last three races, Charles Leclerc has been disqualified, secured a podium, and then crashed out of the race during the formation lap. There isn’t a driver on the entire grid walking around with worse luck than the Monegasque. The Ferrari man has gone from challenging for the championship to not being in the same discussion in two seasons. This is exactly why Leclerc and Ferrari fans are preparing for the worst as the Las Vegas Street Circuit highlights a special feature after the track reveal.
The Vegas Strip has been turned into an F1 street circuit and we will go racing on the track in almost a week’s time. As the race weekend draws closer, more information is coming out. The track layout reveal has given some interesting insights into the track.
