F1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix: Nine stands already sold out

Tickets for nine of the twelve grandstands at the upcoming Formula 1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix have already sold out, organisers have confirmed.

The Baku City Circuit, responsible for staging the event, told local media that construction work on the city track is nearly complete, while public interest in the race continues to grow.

The company also expressed a desire for more extensive media coverage of the event.

The Baku street circuit, which hosted its first Grand Prix in 2016, is considered one of the most spectacular on the Formula 1 calendar, combining narrow sections in the historic city centre with a high-speed straight along the Caspian Sea promenade.

This year’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix is scheduled to take place from September 19 to 21.
