Williams Racing have reduced the number of partners, but the partnership network is now solid. In 2022 the Williams Racing Formula 1 team had 27 partners. Some of them were linked to the Latifi family and some of the partners were Dorilton portfolio companies, such as Versa Integrity Group, Honibe and MEI Rigging & Crating. Bang & Olufsen left after the 2022 season to partner with Scuderia Ferrari and French Thales, known for developing defence systems used in Ukraine, left Formula 1. Those Dorilton "portfolio partners" are now gone, even though Dorilton have kept the Dorilton Ventures brand on the partnership network. The number of partners have been reduced to 17, so 10 less than 2022. Gulf, moving from McLaren, Anheuser-Busch brand Michelob Ultra, US-crypto company Kraken and financial giant Stephens are some of the strong partners on the 2024 Williams network. But I guess two of the partners the Williams team are especially proud of are Japanese Komatsu and German Puma. Getting Komatsu back to F1 and Williams was probably one of the greatest achievements in a while for the Williams partnership team. Overall, I would describe the current Williams Racing partnership network as solid and "healthy" and a network looking stronger and stronger. Well done 🙌 💪

The most expensive Grand Prix Formula One in Las Vegas has turned into a disaster? After a 41-year hiatus, Formula 1’s drivers returned to the Las Vegas Street Circuit. The last races in Las Vegas were held in 1981 and 1982. The city itself, and the traffic within it, has been rebuilt for months in preparation for this year's F1 Grand Prix. Unfortunately, the weekend's F1 Grand Prix was, according to many locals, a disaster, not only financially but also in terms of safety. The first session on the new track lasted nine minutes. The fans didn't even get to see what they paid for. It all happened because of a loose manhole cover for a sewer that Carlos Sainz drove over. The flap hit the chassis of his Ferrari, damaging not only the chassis but also the engine and battery of the Spaniard's car. Frenchman Esteban Ocon's car was also damaged for the same reason. As a result of the incident, the practice session was interrupted and then canceled. The Ferrari team boss felt that such an incident should not have happened in the first place and that the damage caused would cost "a fortune". An inspection of the track revealed that the concrete frame around the manhole cover had been damaged. Surprisingly, despite the fact that Carlos Sainz damaged the car through no fault of his own, he was penalized by the decision to move up 10 places on the grid. The lack of grip on the slippery track was a source of irritation for the drivers. Only the specially built track was up to standard. On the other hand, F1 drivers were no longer used to the conditions on the streets of Las Vegas, which had been specially adapted for the race. Racing conditions for the drivers were therefore less than ideal, and the city's residents have been living a nightmare since April, with traffic rerouting, the construction of a 6.2km bypass, repairs and the closure of some roads. The prospect of a 10-year contract to host F1 in Las Vegas and the reception of this year's event will be an interesting test not only for the organizers and fans, but also for the patience of the city's residents. As they say, if you make no mistakes, you make no money. This year's Las Vegas Grand Prix was expected to generate $500 million in revenue. An overestimation of fan demand and extravagant initial pricing made it one of the most expensive F1 races on the calendar this year. The decision to hold one of the F1 races in Las Vegas was made in response to the sport's growing popularity with US viewers on Netflix. This is the third F1 race on the annual calendar held in the USA. Compared to last year, ESPN's audience fell to 8%. Let's hope the organization of these races is better in the years to come.

Surprisingly, despite the fact that Carlos Sainz damaged the car through no fault of his own, he was penalized by the decision to move up 10 places on the grid. The lack of grip on the slippery track was a source of irritation for the drivers. Only the specially built track was up to standard. On the other hand, F1 drivers were no longer used to the conditions on the streets of Las Vegas, which had been specially adapted for the race. Racing conditions for the drivers were therefore less than ideal, and the city's residents have been living a nightmare since April, with traffic rerouting, the construction of a 6.2km bypass, repairs and the closure of some roads. The prospect of a 10-year contract to host F1 in Las Vegas and the reception of this year's event will be an interesting test not only for the organizers and fans, but also for the patience of the city's residents. As they say, if you make no mistakes, you make no money. This year's Las Vegas Grand Prix was expected to generate $500 million in revenue. An overestimation of fan demand and extravagant initial pricing made it one of the most expensive F1 races on the calendar this year. The decision to hold one of the F1 races in Las Vegas was made in response to the sport's growing popularity with US viewers on Netflix. This is the third F1 race on the annual calendar held in the USA. Compared to last year, ESPN's audience fell to 8%. Let's hope the organization of these races is better in the years to come.
