33 Million Pixels Help Light Up Formula 1 Race Track

The F1 rooftop logo, escalator trapezoid, and three grandstand displays feature more than 33 million Samsung LED pixels and over 32,000 square feet. .

The Las Vegas Strip shined bright during the 2023 Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix—but not solely from the race car lights zipping around the track. In partnership with Liberty Media and the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc., Samsung Display technologies were featured throughout the highly anticipated race’s pit building, including three extra-large grandstand screens with a total of 3.8 million pixels, and a dynamic tight-pitch display that serves as a backdrop for the entry escalator. The star of the race was an LED display in the form of the F1 logo, acting as a new “star” in the sky sitting atop the 1,000-foot-long pit building rooftop—so bright that it may even be visible from outer space. 

The 28,166-square-foot 10mm LED display with over 22 million pixels spans 481 feet––longer than a football field––and mirrors the shape of the F1 logo, exciting viewers watching from home as broadcasters use the sign to provide more immersive and close-up views of the race.  (Image credit: Samsung)
