Thirty-five years later, the sport returns, not with barriers and championship implications, but with symbolism. F1\u2019s U.S. footprint has surged in recent years, with races drawing more American viewership and corporate investment. Bringing a Showrun to Phoenix signals belief in the market.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"213\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/b14ac43dc314d09e3e90a0e6d9caa975.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Jun 15, 2025; Montreal, Quebec, Canada; Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen (1) races during the F1 Montreal Grand Prix at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve.

Fans who may never attend a Grand Prix can stand curbside for free and feel the vibration of an F1 engine against the skyline. For Suns and D-backs supporters, seeing a Red Bull car staged outside their arenas, as it has been during recent games, creates cross-sport energy rarely experienced in one block.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/fe022b216b169404761580aec8b4688f.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Nov 22, 2025; Las Vegas, NV, USA; Red Bull Racing driver Yuki Tsunoda (22) drives during the Las Vegas Grand Prix at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit.
