Baku City Circuit

The Baku City Circuit is a challenging street circuit that has hosted 10 Formula 1 races since 2016. Weaving through the historic and modern streets of Azerbaijan's capital, it is known for its incredibly long main straight, which often exceeds two kilometers, and a tight, narrow section around the Old City walls. This unique combination demands both high top-end speed and precise car control, making it a true test of a car's all-around performance and a driver's bravery. Overtaking opportunities exist, particularly into Turn 1, contributing to often unpredictable and thrilling races.
