As the F1 season heads for its final third, it is still all to play for in the drivers' and constructors' championships as the field heads to Azerbaijan. 

Round 17 of the season is the latest F1 has raced in Baku since it joined the calendar in 2016, with the race usually in April or June, but a calendar re-jig has seen it shuffled back in the order to run back-to-back with Singapore.

Max Verstappen comes into the weekend with a 62 point lead over Lando Norris in the drivers', with Red Bull now just eight clear of McLaren in the constructors'. 

Can Norris - who now has team orders on his side at McLaren take a giant bite out of Verstappen's lead and can McLaren become the first team other than Red Bull to lead the constructors' since the 2022 Miami Grand Prix?

We are about to find out!
