Red Bull drives F1 car through Las Vegas casino days before launch party with Hamilton

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."
Punters slam News Corp-backed Betr for deactivated accounts
Scores of angry punters have accused News Corp-backed wagering group Betr of deactivating their accounts to prevent them claiming Melbourne Cup winnings.
The consumer discontent comes after Betr’s controversial 100-1 odds offer was embraced by hundreds of thousands of people. The group, led by gambling entrepreneurs Matthew Tripp and Andrew Menz, has congratulated those who backed Gold Trip to Melbourne Cup victory on Tuesday and said Betr had paid out all bets by the end of the day.
However, some disappointed users said their accounts had been deactivated without explanation.
Betr wrote to all suspended users on Wednesday asking them to verify the card details of their account or face permanent suspension. The Northern Territory Racing Commission, the authority Betr’s licence is beholden to, prevents betters holding multiple accounts with a bookmaker.
“Our systems have detected that you have made a deposit with a card that is registered to another Betr account holder. Using a card which does not match a customer’s account details is a breach of our terms and conditions,” an excerpt from the letter sent by Betr to affected users on Wednesday afternoon read. The bookmaker declined to comment.
Betr narrowly avoided losses of between $20 million and $50 million on the race after Gold Trip proved victorious over favourite Deauville Legend. Instead, it will pay 10,000 people who backed Gold Trip just over $1000 each.
More than 300,000 customers have joined Betr since it was launched in October, with an array of enticing odds including the 100-1 offer. The uptake has far surpassed expectations drawing suspicion from some the fledgling company may be out of its depth, having suffered a range of in-app issues earlier this month.
Betr was accused of having bitten off more than it could chew when it texted customers with a last-minute offer to take up an $150 betting voucher in exchange for their Deauville Legend bets late on Monday evening. Critics and media reports also pointed to Betr’s own bets on the favourite with rival Tabcorp to reduce its exposure by about $10 million as a sign of panic, but this is a relatively standard practice among bookmakers.
Betr was also rebuked by the NSW regulator on its second day of operations after it ran an aggressive marketing campaign about its odds offer in News Corp’s newspapers and is now the subject of an ongoing investigation into whether it has broken the state’s inducement laws.
One form guide analyst, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he expects Betr’s rapid growth to “backfire spectacularly”.
“Betr’s app so far has been a complete shambles,” the analyst said, adding it was a shame given the demand for competition in the market.
“There’s far too much onus on individual bettors to chase a bookie for their winnings and there are too many clunky apps with poor communication and service across the board.”
Others, including semi-professional punter Bryce Parker, came to the defence of the bookmaker. “I don’t get the amount of negativity thrown at Betr,” he said.
“In my opinion delayed payouts and poor customer service isn’t a bad price to pay with odds like that. They’re not forcing you to sign up. I’m not going to disparage the everyday punter getting the chance to win one grand off $10,” Parker continued, adding he thought Australia’s gambling scene had become too hard to please.
The owner of rival bookmakers Neds and Ladbrokes, Entain, said on Wednesday its yield from the Melbourne Cup had grown by 30 per cent this year, with bets on Gold Trip accounting for nearly 3 per cent of the hold. No other bookmakers disclosed their turnover to this masthead. Victoria Racing Club reported last year’s Melbourne Cup wagering yield was $372.8 million, up 1.9 per cent on 2020.
Entain chief executive Dean Shannon said it was easily the most bets the business has taken on a single race in its 10-year history and that NSW’s simultaneous race had boosted performance.
“The Big Dance has definitely added to the day. Betting on that race was 300 per cent up on a standard Sydney race on Cup Day last year, so it shows that these big events compliment each other,” Shannon said.
Elon Musk visits Twitter headquarters ahead of takeover deadline
Billionaire Elon Musk said he paid a visit to Twitter Inc's (TWTR.N) headquarters in San Francisco on Wednesday, ahead of a court-ordered deadline to close his $44 billion deal for the social media platform.
"Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in!" said the caption of a video that Musk tweeted in which he was walking into the Twitter office carrying a sink in his hands.

Twitter confirmed Musk would visit the San Francisco office this week, but declined to comment further.
Banks have started to send $13 billion in cash backing Musk's takeover of Twitter in a sign that the deal is on track to close by the end of the week, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
Once final closing conditions are met, the funds will be made available for Musk to execute the transaction by the Friday deadline, the report added.
Bank of America and Barclays declined to comment on the report when contacted by Reuters, while Morgan Stanley did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In the six months of a dramatic back-and-forth since Musk announced his $54.20 per share bid, Twitter initially resisted the deal by adopting a poison pill and later sued the world's richest man after he announced plans to abandon the offer on concerns about spam accounts on the platform.
Earlier this month, Musk proposed to proceed with his original $44 billion bid, calling for an end to the lawsuit by Twitter.
The Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) CEO notified co-investors who committed to help fund the Twitter deal that he plans to close it by Friday, Reuters reported on Tuesday.
Equity investors including Sequoia Capital, Binance, Qatar Investment Authority and others have received the requisite paperwork for the financing commitment from Musk's lawyers, Reuters reported.
Twitter shares were up about 1.1% at $53.91 in extended trading, slightly below Musk's offer price.
