Join Edd Straw and Scott Mitchell-Malm on the ground in Las Vegas, as they look ahead to arguably the most hyped race in F1 history. They share their initial views on the venue and circuit, discuss what the drivers have been saying about it (including Max Verstappen's negative comments), and reveal what it was like to attend the glitzy opening ceremony in person. We'll also hear from former McLaren driver John Watson on what it was like to race (and finish on the podium) in F1's first attempt to make a success of a Las Vegas Grand Prix in 1981 and 1982, plus we'll get the latest on Andretti's bid to get an American team onto the Formula 1 grid.
