Hamilton: “The Baku track? A highway!”

Although different in layout from the now classic Tilkodromi with straights mixed with chicanes, curves as far as the eye can see and sudden braking, the new Baku City circuit (6,001 km) which will see F1 debut on Friday has not convinced the three 100% times iridescent Lewis Hamilton.

“I really don't know what to think. It seems to me to be just one of the many new tracks with a long straight and a narrow section” – she told motorsport.com without euphoria.

“In my opinion there is only one true citizen and that is Monte Carlo but no one seems interested in taking him as an example. I honestly don't understand why. Here we have such wide stretches that it seems like we are on the motorway!” – he landed the blow.

“I hope we can still have fun. The forecast calls for sunshine for the weekend. Maybe this will help” – the conclusion of the Mercedes driver.
