F1: Saudi Arabian GP Post-Race Show was spectacular

The second round of this season’s world championship — and the third Formula 1 race in Jeddah — was another incredible spectacle on the shores of the Red Sea.

Fans spent the day enjoying the entertainment both in the hours leading up to lights out — in the circuit’s Fan Zone and watching the grid ceremonies — and long after the incredible drone show and fireworks, they flocked to the post-race concert headlined by Calvin Harris, Travis Scott and Ahmed Saad.

Red Bull Racing’s Sergio Perez crossed the finish line after 50 thrilling laps around the Jeddah Cornice Circuit to win the FORMULA 1 STC SAUDI ARABIAN GRAND PRIX 2023. In front of a packed house, the Mexican put in a dominant display under the floodlights to secure his fifth victory in Formula 1.
