Vegas loses its entire selling point being on during the day, it has to be a night race. Moving it till just after dark would be better for the teams and US fans but would mean destroying the European viewing figures. It's a no win situation and the sooner FOM realise that you can't please every region with every race and just schedule more sensibly for local audiences the better.
What's worse is the flying back and forth over the Atlantic every week. I know circuits pay a huge premium to get certain spots on the calendar but it needs sorting out. Jumping so many time zones so often just isn't good.
