F1 News: Las Vegas Grand Prix Reveals First Ever F1-Themed Wedding Chapel

Adding a whole new dimension to Formula 1 entertainment this weekend in Las Vegas, F1 has built a wedding chapel in the pit building where fans will be able to get married by the Grand Prix street circuit.

Couples can now "Race to the Altar" through a special wedding package that ensures a celebration as dynamic as the sport it mirrors. To create the backdrop for their wedding, the chapel will be embellished with racing-themed decorations, and the couple will be presented with a bouquet of roses inspired by racing cars.

If you thought this was unique enough to take in, wait until you hear about MGM Resorts' tribute to AlphaTauri driver Daniel Riccardo as it is set to offer drinks in a racing shoe to its guests during the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend, to replicate the racing driver's 'Shoey' move.

The Shoey- a popular move by the Australian driver, was a spectacle to behold every time he reached the podium. It involved pouring champagne into his racing shoe before enjoying a celebratory drink.

Speaking on the unique offering, MGM Resorts said in a statement:

“At the Shoey Bar, we invite you to tap into that exhilarating feeling of victory, immersing yourself in the very essence of your favorite [sic] sport.

“Slip into our genuine MGM-branded driving shoes, fill them with your beverage of choice, and raise a triumphant toast, just like your racing heroes do on the podium. Experience the rush, savour the glory, and celebrate your passion for racing with us!”

For enthusiasts eager to enjoy their preferred beverage in Ricciardo style, the shoes at the Bellagio will feature a waterproof lining inside for safety and hygiene purposes.
