This isn't the only lawsuit filed by a Las Vegas business against the Grand Prix.

Battista's Hole in the Wall and Stage Door have filed a joint lawsuit that we first told you about earlier this month.

We've reached out to both Clark County and Formula 1 officials, who both told us they could not comment on pending litigation.

The Las Vegas Grand Prix is returning this year, set to race down the Strip November 21-23.
