It's the beginning of the last set of race weeks, as the Las Vegas GP is on the horizon. Gearing up for the weekend, the F1 world has been busy today with several announcements. Here's what you might have missed. 

Kick Sauber reveals "lucky livery" while Red Bull axes theirs

Kick Sauber revealed its Las Vegas Livery ahead of this weekend's grand prix. The livery features bright flames with the team's iconic green colour. While Kick Sauber gets to run its livery on the Las Vegas Strip Saturday night, Red Bull had to take it for a spin in Ireland. Due to the heavy weight of its Las Vegas Livery, Red Bull cannot run it this weekend. This livery took on a retro-inspired twist with a Las Vegas-inspired inspired blue. 

Formula 1 moves to be more sustainable

To reduce the pollution and waste created by the current Formula 1 calendar, F1 has announced the new date of the Canadian Grand Prix. The Canadian GP will now take place in May instead of June. This news comes after the Monaco GP also received a new date. The 2026 Canadian GP will now fall after the Miami GP. 

F1 Academy release 2025 schedule 

The 2025 schedule for F1 Academy has been released. With seven dates and 14 races, next year's schedule is more exciting than ever. The 2025 schedule features three new locations, starting in Shanghai and ending in Las Vegas. The addition of F1 Academy in Las Vegas makes for the first time a single-seater feeder series has also raced there alongside Formula 1.
