Story Highlights
Overcoming a five-second penalty and achieving a late stage overtake to get passed Charles Leclerc for the lead, Max Verstappen clinched his 18th win of the season in the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix. To launch Formula 1's newest race in the best possible way, the popular motorsports federation, ESPN - the domestic broadcaster for viewers in the United States - and vendors had to put their best foot forward. With the weekend behind us, take a look at SVG's coverage of the technological innovation that occurred at this highly anticipated race on the Strip.
F1's Las Vegas Grand Prix kicked off on Wednesday night with the kind of opening ceremony only Las Vegas could pull off.
F1 Production Team Set to Deliver Glitz, Glam, and High Speeds to Global Audience Last weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix marked a new era for the city of Las Vegas and the sport of F1 as arguably two of the world's most glamorous entities, the racing action of F1,and the glitz and lights of the Las Vegas Strip came together to create an exciting race weekend. For Dean Locke, F1 Director of Broadcast and Media, the first-time event posed a number of unique challenges, not the least of which is that in Las Vegas, everything needed to be bigger, brighter, and bolder.

Ross Video Revs XPression Engines to Power Pit Displays The lights and sights of Las Vegas were front and center at last weekend's F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix and one of the big visual elements was Samsung displays on the permanent pit building which has been constructed just off the iconic Las Vegas Strip. A massive rooftop display (426 feet wide by 96 feet top to bottom) in the shape of the F1 logo as well as displays on the side of the escalator (that display is 72 26 feet) and three grandstand displays are permanently installed, and Ross gear was at the center of powering them not only for the Grand Prix but week in and week out.

With lights out on November 18, spectators attending the race in Las Vegas or watching from around the world saw Samsung display technologies shine bright throughout the Las Vegas Grand Prix pit building, including three extra-large grandstand screens with a total of 3.8 million pixels, a dynamic tight-pitch display that serves as a backdrop for the entry escalator as well as a new star in the sky, an LED display in the form of the F1 logo -the dazzling LED display that sits atop the 1,000-foot-long pit building rooftop.
