Formula 1 returns to the streets of Baku for this w꧋eekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Max Versꦬtappen has a four-point lead at the top of the dr♎ivers' championship following his maiden win Monaco last time out. 

Lewis Hamilton will need to bounce back in Baku after enduring a torr🌱id weekeꦫnd in the principality, where he finished seventh.

Over the years, the Azerbaijan GP has been chaotic and exciting due to it🅰s street circuit nature, combined with♒ long straights allowing for overtaking opportunities.

Pirelli has nominated the C3, C4 and C5 tyres for𓂃 this weekend - theไ softest compounds available in its range for the season.

Ahead of the weekend, Pirelli's Mario Isola said: “From one unique circuit to another: Baku provides a very different test to Monaco, but 💃the precision needed to stay out of trouble is similar. For the first time we bring the very softest tyres in the range to Azerbaijan, as also seen in Monte Carlo. The reason for this nomination is that the hard wasn’t used at all in the Baku race in 2019, whereas the medium was used extensively. By re-aligning the nominations, we hope to see all three compounds playing an important role and leading to some different strategies. In Formula 2, there’s a step between the compounds, just as was the case at the opening round in Bahrain.

“This creates a bigger differential between the tyres, and again leads to🔯 some entertaining racing and tactics, on a challenging circuꦛit that’s renowned for being a place where anything can happen.”
