The idea of having a concert at a Grand Prix is certainly not new, but the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) brought this concept to a whole new level when it introduced the Super Stage in 2015. Since that year, visitors of the F1 race in Austin have been treated by first-class performances of world-renowned artists including Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Ed Sheeran. This year, Sting took the stage on Friday evening, while Eminem is set to entertain the crowd at the Texas racetrack on Saturday.
On Thursday, Autosport Business meets up with Glynn Wedgewood, Senior Vice President of Music & Entertainment at COTA, in his office located in race control. It’s actually one of his three offices out of which he operates during the Grand Prix weekend.
