Track Analysis The circuit of Baku was designed by renowned racetrack architect Hermann Tilke and is 6.003 kilometers long. The track features a unique layout that combines long straights, tight corners, and high-speed sections. It is a challenging circuit for drivers due to its narrow streets, tight turns, and unforgiving walls. One of the key features of the Baku City Circuit is its long s...

Race pace of Leclerc, Perez, Hamilton and Alonso. It is immediately noticea...
