The chief executive of Formula One’s owner Liberty Media, Greg Maffei, has issued an apology for the disruption brought to Las Vegas, after workers expressed disquiet over the impact the sport has had on infrastructure.
Las Vegas will host its first F1 race in more than 40 years on Saturday and for the first time it will run down the Strip in the centre of the city. Work on the project has been ongoing for more than nine months and has included resurfacing of the roads that will make up the track, and building of an extensive and permanent pit and paddock complex.
