Baku City Circuit
The street circuit in Baku poses a significant challenge for many drivers. As the track winds its way through the heart of the capital, it features numerous narrow, straight corners. Formula 1 cars also navigate through the vicinity of a medieval castle, requiring them to traverse a particularly tight passage. The technical turns in the first sector are succeeded by long straight stretches with no braking points, making it a common struggle for teams to find the right setup for their cars. In Baku, striking the correct compromise in car tuning becomes invaluable due to this unique combination of technical and straight-line sections.
