Grandstand at Las Vegas Grand Prix to be built over Bellagio lake

Formula 1 is bringing three races to the United States next year, with perhaps the most highly-anticipated of the trio being the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix.

First of all, it's Vegas. We all know what happens there stays there, and that's because Vegas is hands down a good time -- no matter how you slice it. Vegas is also an expensive time, though, and for Formula 1 fans who want to watch the race from the grandstand...that sentiment is going to be doubly true.

On the website, grandstand tickets for the 2023 Vegas Grand Prix are already sold out despite the fact that the package goes for $2,500. That's a three-day package that is clearly well worth it for fans of F1 racing, though.

In true Vegas fashion, this will be a night race and it's a street circuit -- so just imagine the normal sights and sounds of a night in Vegas combined with the spectacle of F1 cars barreling down the strip.

Not only are the packages being sold all-inclusive for food, hotel and non-alcoholic drinks, but the grandstand is almost just as much of a draw as the race will be.

MGM Resorts International announced that it will be building the grandstands on the lake at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino. The Bellagio's fountains are world-renowned and almost worth the price of admission to Vegas alone. Now F1 fans will be able the watch the race fly by while the fountains show off their patented choreography in the periphery.

For American fans of F1 racing, could there be a better venue?
The other two F1 races on United States soil in 2023 will be in Miami, Florida and Austin, Texas
