Circuit character

Two circuits in one: a medieval castle section barely eight metres wide, then the longest full-throttle stretch in F1 along the Caspian shoreline. Safety cars and late restarts are practically a scheduling item.

Where the passes happen

  • ▸T1 after the 2.2 km flat-out run
  • ▸T3 off the zone-two straight
  • ▸slipstream games down the start/finish blast
