What time does the Las Vegas GP finish?

The Las Vegas GP is scheduled to finish at approximately 06:00 UTC — about two hours after the 04:00 UTC start. F1 races run to the lesser of 305 km or two hours of racing, so most last around 1h45–2h of green-flag running; a red flag or repeated safety cars can push the finish later, and the FIA caps total race time at three hours. In the UK and Ireland that is roughly 6:00 AM GMT, and on the US East Coast about 1:00 AM EST. Treat it as a planning estimate — take the exact start time above and add roughly two hours.
