●       Marshal Support: assistance with the hospitality, registration, equipment management, and transport for other marshals.

Selected marshals must service all days of participation from Nov.15-18, and will be contracted to provide the foregoing services. They will not be deemed employees for any purposes. Full requirements and details may be found on the application website.

“Throughout the planning process for the first-ever FORMULA 1 HEINEKEN SILVER LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX the safety of drivers and spectators is our top priority,” said Renee Wilm, CEO of Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc. “We’re looking forward to enlisting the support of seasoned marshals to ensure the newest race on the Formula 1® calendar becomes a marquee event for years to come.”
