A street circuit through Baku combining one of the longest straights in Formula 1 with a narrow, walled climb through the old city.
About Baku City Circuit
Baku City Circuit is a study in contrasts. Its main straight runs for over two kilometres along the Caspian seafront, long enough that slipstreaming decides races outright. Then the lap turns into the medieval old city and squeezes between stone walls at turn 8, where the track narrows to a width that leaves no margin at all.
That combination — enormous top speed on one hand, zero room for error on the other — makes the wing level a genuine gamble, and the safety car a near-certainty. Races here rarely finish the way they looked at half distance.
