George Russell leaving this Sunday (Saturday night in Las Vegas) from the first position of the starting grid of the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP after beating Sainz in the battle for pole, that from the second place he has a good chance of achieving victory. And the result of the fight for the pole is misleading. George smiled, but the points were shared on Sunday and, in that sense, Sainz should start as the great favorite for victory from 2nd.
He Ferrari This is a car that performs better in the race than in qualifying and, starting in second place, if Carlos can get a good start from the starting grid of the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP and avoid accidents in a very slippery first corner, The Madrid native has a good chance of achieving what could be his last victory in red before leaving for Williams.
Ferrari is the car that takes best care of its wheels. The degradation that worries Las Vegas is ‘Graining’ and those in red nailed that aspect last year at this track. That element could be key for Carlos to win as he has more options than Russell, who has a good one-turn car but should have a bigger breakdown problem.
Surprising third place of Pierre Gasly with his Alpine taking advantage of the complex conditions of the asphalt. Fourth is Leclerc and behind them, the starting grid of the 2024 F1 Las Vegas GP is on fire for the fight for the title.
Verstappen He comes out 5th against his rival for the crown, Lando Norris. Landau He should try to come back with one of the best cars after failing to qualify. Yes Max he will be the first to be proclaimed a 4-time champion and abandoning both will give him the crown as well, so Norris will have to be careful attacking the Dutchman.
