After a two-week break, Formula 1 returns to the track in Las Vegas. As we gear up for the third-to-last race of the season, the battles for both the Drivers’ and Constructors’ World Championships are still wide open. A victory here could secure Max Verstappen’s fourth title or continue Lando Norris‘ dream run. This success will be celebrated with the Las Vegas trophy, which, while staying the same in design, introduces a unique twist.
When the 2023 trophy was first revealed, many fans were underwhelmed by its simple appearance. The object, almost anonymous, attempted to capture the essence of Las Vegas, known also as the “City of Lights” or the “Sin City.”
These two names perfectly embody the character of the city, which thrives at night and is made even more eccentric by the vibrant lights that illuminate it. Designed to celebrate the uniqueness of the race, held at night on a city circuit lit up with neon lights, the trophy features modern lines and a design that evokes neon lights and the city’s distinctive energy. Made from high-end materials, it reflects the blend of luxury and spectacle that defines Las Vegas.
For 2024, the GP organizers decided not to change the overall design but to make a few small adjustments to make it even more special. The many colorful lines that form an arch, symbolizing movement, remain, now accentuated by the irregularity of the lines.
What sets this year’s celebratory trophy apart is a detail revealed at the end of the video. It seems almost certain that this object will light up, further highlighting the colors of the lines. A simple yet effective way to make the 2024 trophy even more distinctive and less predictable.
