Who Is Liberty Media and Why Are They Being Sued for the FP2 Cancellation?
Liberty Media owns Formula 1 and, through its subsidiary Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc., ran the inaugural 2023 street race on the Strip. A loose manhole cover — the same one that tore up Carlos Sainz’s car — forced officials to cancel the first practice session and push the second deep into the night. That put Liberty Media and LVGP on the hook, because they controlled both the track conditions and the decision to lock ticketholders out of the delayed session without a refund.
What Did Liberty Media Do to Ticketholders on November 16, 2023?
Fans with Thursday-Only or Three-Day tickets came for two practice sessions. The first one got scrapped after cars ran over a dislodged manhole cover, which court filings say hadn’t been properly secured for race conditions. The second session, FP2, ran so late that fan zones closed at 1:30 a.m. — before many ticketholders ever got back in. The lawsuit claims that amounted to breach of contract: fans paid for admission to FP2 and never got it, or a dollar back.
A federal judge let the breach of contract claim move forward in February 2026, while narrowing a separate consumer-protection claim. That’s part of why this settlement covers ticket price value tied specifically to FP2 — not the whole event.
That gap between what fans paid for and what they got is the entire case in one sentence.
Who Qualifies for the Liberty Media FP2 Ticket Settlement?
Here’s exactly how to know if this case includes you.
- You bought a Thursday-Only or Three-Day ticket directly from LVGP or Ticketmaster, primary or secondary market
- Or someone transferred you a ticket that was originally bought that way
- You scanned that ticket for entry before 11:59:59 p.m. on November 16, 2023
You’re excluded if your ticket came through a reseller other than Ticketmaster, an F1 partner allotment, an internal LVGP allotment, or a Paddock Club transfer.
Fans Outside Nevada — Are You Still Covered?
Yes. This is a nationwide settlement class. It doesn’t matter where you live — what matters is where and how you got your ticket, and whether you scanned in before the cutoff time.
Not sure if you qualify? A free consultation with a class action attorney can help before the August 27 deadline.
How Much Can Liberty Media Ticket Settlement Class Members Get? Up to $3,047,986 Total
Nobody gets a flat number here. The fund pays out pro-rata — more valid claims filed means smaller individual checks, fewer claims means bigger ones. Before anyone sees a payment, the fund covers notice and administration costs, Class Counsel’s fees (capped at 30%, or $914,396), litigation expenses, and $2,500 service awards for each of the five named plaintiffs.
Your share depends on whether you held a Thursday-Only or Three-Day ticket, the average price of that ticket type, and how much of that price the court attributes to the FP2 session specifically. Payments over $600 may appear on a 1099 come tax season.
If you bought directly from LVGP or Ticketmaster, you don’t have to do anything — payment goes to your last known email automatically. If someone else handed you the ticket, that automatic payment doesn’t happen. You have to ask for it.

Should Liberty Media Class Members Opt Out or Object Before the Final Hearing?
What Opting Out Actually Means
Opting out means you get no payment from this fund, but you keep the right to sue Liberty Media and LVGP separately over the same FP2 incident. Most people shouldn’t opt out without talking to a lawyer first — separate litigation costs time and money this settlement doesn’t ask of you.
How to Object
If you’re in the class and think the deal is unfair, you can stay in and still tell the court that. Objections go to the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada, 333 Las Vegas Blvd South, Las Vegas, NV 89101, ahead of the November 4, 2026 final approval hearing, following the format specified in the settlement notice.
Talk to a class action lawsuit attorney before the hearing if you’re considering either option.

Liberty Media FP2 Ticket Settlement — Frequently Asked Questions, No. 2:23-cv-02124-GMN-NJK
Do I need to file a claim for the Liberty Media settlement?
Only if you got your ticket from someone other than LVGP or Ticketmaster. Direct and Ticketmaster purchasers are paid automatically — no class action settlement eligibility check needed on your end.
How much will I get from the Liberty Media ticket settlement?
There’s no fixed number. Payment depends on your ticket type and how many valid claims come in against the $3,047,986 fund.
What if I only had a single-day ticket for a day other than day one?
You’re not covered. This settlement is limited to Thursday-Only and Three-Day tickets scanned in before 11:59:59 p.m. on November 16, 2023.
Is there a lawsuit against Liberty Media over the Las Vegas Grand Prix?
Yes — Diep v. Liberty Media Corporation, No. 2:23-cv-02124-GMN-NJK, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada. This settlement would resolve it.
Does settling mean Liberty Media admitted wrongdoing?

Only if you opt out of this settlement before the deadline in the notice. Staying in means giving up that separate right in exchange for your share of the fund.
