The Formula 1 Grid First moved to Las Vegas in 1981 to race at an iconic hotel, The Ceasars Palace.
The racetrack was made in the Parking Lot of the hotel. And, F1 Legend, Nelson Piquet clentched his first world title in Vegas!
Unfortunately, the Ceasar's Palace GP was not a fan favorite. Severe losses caused F1 to withdraw from there after the last race in 1984.
