After Sergio Perez’s red-flag period, Lewis Hamilton was the first to get a standing start. Hamilton wanted to get ahead of Perez at Turn 1 when he clicked his ‘brake magic” button. This caused Hamilton to go straight into the runoff zone and out from the points.

Baku City Circuit ranks third in length after Jeddah and Spa. It became a popular circuit with many challenges for drivers and plenty of overtaking opportunities.
The track, measuring 6.003km, takes in the main sights of Azerbaijan’s capital. A 2.2km start/finish straight allows cars to record Monza-level speeds as they approach the line.
Baku’s 20-turn circuit combines technical middle sectors with long straights. The section between Turns 8 and 9 sees the cars threading the needle and passing the Baku Fortress Wall. This wall is the narrowest part in Formula 1 and many drivers have been caught.
The final sector focuses on power. A clear exit at Turn 16 to the left is essential to maintaining high top speeds down the main straight. Turns 1 through 3 are the top overtaking areas at the ends of long straights as well as both DRS zones. Pole-sitter has only won two races around Baku. Qualifying is not necessary, but DRS can be very powerful.
