Mercedes' British driver George Russell races during the first practice session for the Las Vegas Formula One Grand Prix on November 16, 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The troubled Las Vegas Formula One Grand Prix has been hit with a class action lawsuit after the race's first practice session was canceled when Carlos Sainz's Ferrari was badly damaged by a loose drain cover. The highly-anticipated first action on the neon-lit circuit, which includes a section along the famed Las Vegas Strip, lasted a little over eight minutes on Thursday before coming to a halt. Las Vegas Grand Prix officials attempted damage control, offering $200 merchandise vouchers to single-day ticket holders. The lawsuit named Formula owners and race promoters Liberty Media Corporation, DBA Formula One Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix and TAB Contractors as defendants.

Whether it's streaming or traditional TV, sports keep audiences coming back to their screens — and Netflix is working on getting more into the game. Netflix announced it would broadcast "The Netflix Cup" live, a matchup between athletes that appeared in the Formula 1 docuseries and the golf series "Full Swing." Even though customers are fleeing traditional TV, from the cable-TV bundle to broadcast, those that stick around often do so for the live sports. That showed in September, when the return of the National Football League and college football seasons propelled both broadcast and cable-TV viewership. It has been a gradual move toward both sports and live streaming — Netflix had technical issues when it aired the finale of reality show "Love is Blind" earlier this year — but one the streamer appears ready to make.
