Las Vegas is such a global city and it's such a global sport. We're excited for it to be back. We practiced at the mini Grand Prix today. We've got some fun in store, a surprise in store so good things happening.

Up next, Aaron Taylor-Johnson explains why he took a bullet train to come to the second Las Vegas Grand Prix.

These events go around the world; sometimes, they coincide when you're available to do these things. I guess it's the second time it's been here in Vegas. Isn't it? It's fresh. It's new. Night race. It's just a spectacle. I have a ton of friends. So yeah. Like I said, timing. It's great to see a race on home ground.

From the bench to the seat next year, Australian racing driver Jack Doohan had a lot to say about the challenges of traveling around for F1, but the excitement it brings.

It's embracing Las Vegas a lot, which I think is super cool. I think making the most of this spectacular Grand Prix is great and I look forward to be doing it in the driving seat next year. In the words you said, it's just so different. We're on a completely different schedule. We're coming in for our morning briefing at 6 p.m. It's a completely different circus, so much different than what we're used to. It creates an opportunity to really get an edge on these different time zones and different conditions. It's nice.

The race is scheduled to start at 10 p.m. You can follow along with all things F1 here:
