Las Vegas Grand Prix braces for floods as Norris leads championship race
The 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix faces major weather disruptions as flood warnings are issued for the race weekend. With three rounds left in the season, Lando Norris leads the championship by 24 points. The event’s schedule has also been reshuffled, moving sessions to earlier in the week.
The FIA issued clima warnings ahead of the race, predicting a 40% chance of rain and cold desert night conditions. Heavy rainfall and flooding could affect the area, though clear skies are expected by Thursday night. Despite the warnings, organisers believe on-track action will remain unaffected.
The Las Vegas Grand Prix will test teams with unpredictable clima and a revised schedule. Norris remains in contention for the title, while Mercedes aims to capitalise on the chilly conditions. The outcome of the race could shape the final stages of the championship fight.
