Jul.24 (GMM) Formula 1’s Las Vegas GP and parent company Liberty Media have agreed to pay more than $3 million to settle a class-action lawsuit stemming from the chaotic opening night of the inaugural 2023 race.
A loose water-valve cover damaged multiple cars during first practice and caused a delay of around two and a half hours, before spectators were ordered to leave and missed the resumed session.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, fans holding either one-day practice tickets or three-day race tickets may be eligible for compensation.
Neither Liberty Media nor the Las Vegas GP admitted wrongdoing as part of the settlement.
The lawsuit originally sought $5 billion when it was filed in 2023.
Part of the case was dismissed in February 2025, but an amended complaint allowed proceedings to continue and ultimately led to the settlement.
