Azerbaijan Grand Prix 2021- Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track

Crafted by the Tilke Company, the Baku City Circuit is the second-longest circuit registered in the list of F1 racing venues. The circuit is in the lowest-lying capital city, surrounded by water bodies. This makes the circuit extremely adventurous for racing and spectating.
