The second edition of the modern Las Vegas Grand Prix is in the bag, with Mercedes star George Russell taking a stunning victory under the lights in Sin City this year.
George Russell, take a bow. That was a perfect weekend for Mercedes and boy did both he and the team deserve it.
However, what a shame that the vast majority of F1 fans will likely not know just how good a weekend it really was for the Silver Arrows.
For the last three days, my alarms have been set for 01:30 GMT in order to cover the best of the action right the way through from FP1.
And even those in the States are hard-pushed with some of the session times. As Sky said on broadcast, aside from those in Guam and Australia - who really benefits from this?
The Las Vegas Grand Prix needs to change its timings if it wants to keep pulling an audience in.
If not, I give it another year or two before the novelty behind simply racing at Vegas wears off.

It feels like this has been 'the bit where Chris beats McLaren over the head for four paragraphs' for the second half of this season, but if they will continue to invite it...
Maybe they'll still win the constructors' championship, but if they aren't doing their damnedest to fumble every opportunity that falls into their collective lap then they're doing a great impression of a team that is.
If you're losing a hefty number of points to Ferrari on a day where one of the Scuderia's drivers is shouting down the radio to furiously argue pitstop timings and the other is unleashing a foul-mouthed rant straight after the chequered flag, that says more about you than them.
Of course Oscar Piastri got a five-second penalty for a mistake on the grid. Of course they looked fast all weekend until it actually mattered, on the weekend they conceded the drivers' title with a whimper. Oh well. At least the pitstop for the fastest lap point was smart.

Well that won’t go down as an all-time classic will it?
Admittedly, there were aspects of the Las Vegas GP that were exciting on track, but the race possessed a rather cold and sterile atmosphere across the whole weekend, that did not fit the showstopper we were promised.
Instead, it would serve the championship better to cut the season shorter and return the finale to Brazil.

Max Verstappen is the World Champion. Lewis Hamilton still has the chops to be World Champion. All he needs is a better car, and maybe he’ll get that car next year in Ferrari. As long as they can sort their team strategy out.
Strategy at Ferrari has long been a joke. Memes have been created and shared and reshared. They’ve gone so far from Plan A in most races that they are actually inventing new letters.
This is the mess Hamilton is walking into. But alongside him, he’ll have one of the most aggressive drivers in the business in Charles Leclerc.
Next season promises to be an exhilarating year for motorsport with the destination of the 2025 F1 title anyone’s guess.
Oh, I nearly forgot. George Russell won a race. Good for him, I suppose. But there are far more important things to worry about.
