Nonetheless, amidst the spectacle and buzz surrounding the race, a notable feature emerged — a makeshift wedding chapel inside the paddock in 'Sin City,' renowned as the ‘Wedding Capital of the World.’

ESPN F1 reports that this makeshift chapel, situated inside the circuit, offered special F1 wedding packages under the slogan 'Race to the Altar.'

Notably, 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve seized the opportunity to make history as the first F1 driver to tie the knot in a paddock.
