The 2016 season saw Azerbaijan become the latest addition to the Formula 1 calendar, with capital city Baku playing host to the fastest street circuit in F1 racing, on a layout designed by renowned track architect Hermann Tilke. Tilke’s design married technical sectors with extreme straights to create a stunning circuit that also thrives on Baku’s very attractive urban atmosphere and its great combination of history and 21st century style. The historic city centre, the beautiful seaside promenade and the impressive government house all combine to provide the perfect backdrop for the spectacular track.
Join us in the morning for the latest updates and results from the Baku City Circuit, as the first practice session ahead of the 2018 Azerbaijan Grand Prix is about to get underway, with Scuderia Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen at the wheel of the SF71H, ready to once again challenge Mercedes and Red Bull.
