RS3 was awarded the exclusive contract to the Circuit of The Americas and the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in 2014 for two reasons: to improve the quality of the fan experience and to return the business back to where it belongs, the ownership. Our impact was immediate, as high-level sponsors returned, food quality and service were improved and per capita spending at the United States Grand Prix was up an astounding 35% over the prior year.
