F1 reveal unique Las Vegas Grand Prix schedule and ‘opening ceremony’ plans
Formula 1 has confirmed the schedule for the Las Vegas Grand Prix next month including a 10pm local start time for the race on Saturday night and an opening ceremony before cars are on track. F1 is returning to Sin City for the first time in over 40 years in November, with the 3.8 mile street track on the Vegas strip staging the penultimate race of the 2023 season in what is being billed as one of the sporting events of the year. Now, plans and timings have been confirmed by race organisers – with the race start time confirmed to be 10pm PST (6am GMT, 1am ET) under the lights on Saturday 18 November. The event schedule will start, rather uniquely, on a Wednesday night with a lavish opening ceremony at the paddock site. It will feature the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new paddock building, estimated to have cost $500million, and is likely to follow a similar order of play to Miami’s pre-event spectacle, where drivers and team bosses were introduced on stage. Practice takes place on Thursday 16 November, with qualifying on Friday 17 November at midnight (PST), which is 8am GMT and 3am ET on Saturday morning. Race organisers announced this week that Nevada residents can secure a single-day grandstand ticket for Thursday practice, starting at $200, with race day tickets around $1,300. Three-day tickets for $500 have already sold out. Preparation for the Las Vegas race has seen numerous roads closed while construction takes place, with the project as a whole costing an estimated $560m. A man working on the construction at the Bellagio Fountains area tragically died last month after suffering a “major laceration to the neck.” A spokesperson for the police confirmed the worker was involved in construction for the Vegas race circuit. The 3.8-mile track passes a host of famous Sin City landmarks, including the Bellagio, Caesars Palace and the new MGM Sphere. F1 is returning to Vegas for the first time since 1982, when the Caesars Palace Grand Prix was held in the car park of the famous hotel.

The Healthiest Way To Go Very Blonde Is With A “Faux” Bleach & Tone
No one knows hair color like Tracey Cunningham, especially when it comes to blondes. Think of celebrities who are bordering-platinum blonde — January Jones, Julia Garner, Khloe Kardashian (at the moment she’s very blonde) — they all see Cunningham every six weeks. Now, most people who want the lightest white tone of blonde are seeing their colorist for what’s called a “bleach and tone” — the process of applying bleach to entire head until it’s all white, then applying a toner to get the desired undertone — but Cunningham has an alternate technique that she uses to mitigate damage. She says it’s the reason her blonde clients are able to keep their hair so healthy.
