2024 United States Grand Prix

The USA GP has had a somewhat peripatetic history. 44 races have gone by the name of the US Grand Prix, hosted at Watkins Glen twenty times, Indianapolis 8, Circuit of the Americas 11, Phoenix 3, Riverside and Sebring with one apiece.

Apart from the USA GPs, there were also events in Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas and Long Beach, from the 70s to the mid-80s. Even the Indianapolis 500 was part of the picture, counting for the F1 World Championship in its early years, but usually no European drivers took part and it dropped off the F1 calendar in 1961.

“Austin is one of my favourite weekends of the year, as I enjoy the city and the track is great fun to drive, with the first part of the lap a bit like Suzuka. I’ve finished in the points the previous three times and also set the race fastest lap last year. I’ll be interested to see what the track is like as they have resurfaced it since the last race. It’s a Sprint weekend which means the preparation and simulation work we have carried out before coming to Austin takes on even more importance than usual to ensure we have a smooth free practice hour before immediately going into the competitive part of the weekend.“

“I’m super excited for Austin and getting in the RB VCARB 01 for the first time. I’ve been to COTA a few times as a reserve and it’s probably one of my favourite races to go to, the atmosphere there is amazing. Although it’s a track I have yet to race at, I’ve spent plenty of time on it in the simulator. It has a great layout, so I’m looking forward to driving it for the first time, and just generally stoked to be back racing and working with the team to get the best results we can.”
