Red Bull have helped to promote F1's newest race in Las Vegas set to debut in November next season.
Red Bull have driven a Formula One car through a Las Vegas casino ahead of this weekend’s F1 launch party. Visitors looked shocked as the car shot past blackjack tables at the iconic Wynn Las Vegas Casino.
Ahead of its run, the car was parked in the foyer with fans able to get close to the car. After driving through the casino, the car came to a stop at the front of the building where it was collected by a team of Red Bull mechanics.
The demonstration was completed with a drifting display from the F1 car and Red Bull’s Stadium Super Trucks machine. Social media users were shocked at the footage with some in awe of Red Bull’s display.
Twitter user @burrrke posted: “I would say there’s definitely room for disaster here, but I’ve never been in a casino or driven a F1 car. @masaloin added: “I should’ve been in Vegas seeing the Red Bull f1 car driving in the casino and on the Strip.”
Red Bull also took part in a filming session on the Las Vegas Strip on Wednesday. It comes just days before this weekend’s launch event to mark one year before the first race.
Fans reported on social media that Sergio Perez was behind the wheel of the car as the cameras started rolling. Footage shows Perez driving up and down the famous Strip before doing a 180-degree spin for the crowd.
Perez has already been confirmed to be attending the event at Caesars Palace on Saturday night. He will be joined by Mercedes F1 stars Lewis Hamilton and George Russell as well as Williams driver Alex Albon.
The event will be completely free of charge and will allow fans a chance to get up close with the cars. Spectators will also be treated by a live car demonstration on Las Vegas Boulevard and be introduced to the four drivers on the main stage.
Those in attendance can also enjoy F1's Pit Stop Challenge and grab photos with cars and trophies. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali said the event would give locals a “taste of things to come” ahead of next season’s debut Grand Prix.
He explained: “We are thrilled to welcome our fans to the launch of the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix. The Las Vegas Grand Prix is going to become a regular fixture in the city and on the global sporting calendar, so it is important to have local fans both celebrated and celebrating with us from the very start.
“This launch is a small but exciting taste of things to come over the next year when all the Formula One teams hit The Strip."

TOP 5 CELEBRITIES
1. MATT DAMON
Actor and big roller, Matt Damon, kicks off the list of renowned gamblers.
Matt Damon is a professional poker and blackjack player, in addition to being a famous actor. He was acting as a law student and talented poker player Mike McDermott in the 1998 blockbuster Rounders gave the five-time Oscar contender and one-time Oscar winner a newfound passion for gaming.
Damon prepared for his role by training with Johnny Chan, a professional poker player. He is one of the world’s finest professional poker players. Damon owes him a debt of gratitude for teaching him the ropes of the game.
The famous actor from Hollywood kept playing traditional casino table games like poker and blackjack long after filming had wrapped up. Damon is periodically observed at some of the world’s most prestigious casinos, albeit he does not get to play there as often as he would like.
There are few specifics on what he’s doing with his earnings. Damon enjoys gambling and has even competed in several tournaments. He chooses to play at well-known casinos to pay out the most.
2. BEN AFFLECK
Ben Affleck, Matt Damon’s best friend, hardly needs an introduction. And he’s a card counter and gambler, much like Damon. In the 2013 crime thriller, Runner Runner, Affleck played a character who was up against a made-up empire of internet casinos. Even though the movie was poorly received by some critics, but not by hardcores, Affleck kept on gambling, and the personnel at the casinos where he played said that he always left tips.
3. GEORGE CLOONEY
George Clooney, the co-star of Matt Damon in several Hollywood films, has long been a fan of the casino scene and has been in the process of purchasing a Las Vegas gambling establishment since 2005. Unfortunately, this famous high-ideas roller never got off the ground, so he visited the casinos of others and appeared in films like Ocean’s Eleven, Twelve, and Thirteen.
4. BRAD PITT
Brad Pitt is up next. Like many of his coworkers, it appears that the Ocean’s franchise introduced him to the joys of gambling, specifically card games like poker and blackjack. Before filming the gambling scenes, Pitt visited multiple casinos to hone his game and soak in the distinctive casino ambiance. He still likes to play blackjack at the casino whenever he has the time.
5. FLOYD MAYWEATHER
Although many have gambled on Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s bouts, the flamboyant boxer has been known to bet huge sums of money on other sporting events. He allegedly considered placing a $400,000 bet on himself to defeat UFC superstar Conor McGregor but ultimately opted against doing so after several bookies raised doubts about the legitimacy of such a wager. In 2012, he made headlines for placing a $1.1 million bet on the NCAA football game between Oregon and Arizona State, which he then boasted about on social media.
Media Man Wrap

Keep in mind that this is just a sampling of the famous people that enjoy gambling. Most famous people regularly indulge in gambling since they like it so much.

Media Man Culture Blog: Gambling companies get new advertising tag
Gambling companies get new advertising tag
Australian TV viewers will no longer hear the hastily uttered "gamble responsibly" tagline.
From March 2023, betting companies like Ladbrokes, Sportsbet and TAB must ditch the well-known slogan in favour of seven new and government-approved ones.
"Evidence and research clearly shows the 'gamble responsibly' message doesn't do the job of getting people to think and to minimise harm," Social Services Minister Amanda Rishworth told ABC radio on Wednesday.
"So the new taglines, which were agreed with all state territories and the Commonwealth, are evidence-based and they actually have been shown to work."
The new mottos include "Chances are you're about to lose", "You win some. You lose more", "What's gambling really costing you?" and "What are you really gambling with?"
When on screen, they must accompany information about gambling addiction resources and appear in the largest font possible to take up a third of the on-screen space.
If the taglines are spoken, they have to be read slowly and calmly.
Online gambling firms must rotate through each of slogans over a 12-month period to stop viewers becoming acclimatised to a message.
While gambling critics welcome the changes, some want them to go further.
They're "welcome and a good start to the widespread reform urgently needed", according to Tasmanian independent Andrew Wilkie.
"Doing away with the 'gamble responsibly' message is appropriate because the problems in the online and sports betting industry are more about the predatory behaviour of that industry than the behaviour of gamblers.
"Of course there are many bigger reforms that remain unaddressed."
Mr Wilkie is calling for a ban on television gambling ads during G-rated viewing hours and the implementation daily limits on betting companies.
In NSW, parliamentary crossbenchers have pushed for a mandatory cashless gaming card to provide harm reduction benefits for problem gamblers and crackdown on money laundering.
A report from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare found Australians lost around $25 billion on legal forms of gambling from 2018-2019, one of the biggest per capita losses in the world.
Beyond the financial costs, the report also revealed for every person who experienced problem gambling, up to six people around them were negatively affected.
