Las Vegas has become the epicenter of Formula One action this weekend, as the city’s excitement peaks for one of the racing calendar’s most anticipated events.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z made a sensational entrance, captivating the crowd. The ‘Crazy in Love’ star arrived on the racetrack clad in a striking leather race suit.

Beyoncé was particularly eager to meet Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton. The 44-year-old singer and her husband were spotted in animated conversation with the British driver, who boasts seven world championship titles, marking him as one of Formula 1’s legends.

Hamilton didn’t just spare a moment for a chat; he whisked Beyoncé away for an exhilarating lap around the track. In just a few hours, he would be racing on the same circuit. The singer appeared slightly overwhelmed as Hamilton hit speeds of 200 mph with her onboard.

Once the adrenaline subsided, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and Hamilton joined forces for photographs alongside Travis Scott and Michael Rubin, capturing the memorable moment.

Meanwhile, there were plenty of Formula One WAGs determined not to be upstaged by the music power couple.

Hamilton’s Ferrari teammate, Charles Leclerc, made a high-profile arrival of his own alongside stunning fiancee Alexandra Saint Mleux.

The couple only announced their engagement earlier in November. They have been dating since 2023 and, according to experts, Leclerc spent big on the engagement ring.

The driver, worth an estimated $125million, splashed out around $525,000 on her ring.

As Leclerc stepped up his preparations, the 23-year-old Saint Mleux found a friend in fellow WAG Rebecca Donaldson.

The Scottish model, who is dating Carlos Sainz, the Spaniard who drives for Williams, walked alongside Saint Mleux through the paddock as excitement started to build in the City of Lights.

Sainz’s teammate Alexander Albon made a quieter arrival alongside his girlfriend, Lily Muni He.

She seemed to be feeling the cold in a cooler than anticipated Vegas. It was a cloudy day, with temperatures only reaching around 62 degrees.

Brooks Nader was also catching plenty of attention from the cameras. The model made the headlines during the US Open tennis tournament in New York in September when she was romantically linked to two players in Carlos Alvarez and Jannik Sinner, wore a racing jacket of her own and a plunging black top.

In addition to the celebrities, a few members of the Trump Administration were seen trackside as well. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and FBI Director Kash Patel were spotted in the paddock – with the pair even sitting in a pink Cadillac made out of Legos.

McLaren’s championship front-runner Lando Norris will start the Saturday race from the front of the grid after a rainy qualifying session on Friday.

‘It was pretty nasty,’ Norris said of the conditions. ‘It was so slippery. 

‘The amount of wheel spin in certain places was difficult. It was difficult to lock the tires. 

‘Everything was pretty tough, so I’m even more satisfied with the end result because of how tricky everything was out there today.’ 

As for the race itself, Red Bull driver Max Verstappen won his second Las Vegas Grand Prix after dodging a wild maneuver from Norris on the first lap.

Norris finished second while Mercedes driver George Russell came in third.

Elsewhere on the grid, Leclerc finished one spot ahead of his former Ferrari teammate Sainz as the pair finished sixth and seventh respectively. Hamilton, who has struggled this season, came in P10 – the final points spot.
