Formula 1 touches down in Azerbaijan this weekend, heading to a country in the far reaches of Europe as the sport returns to Baku for the first time since 2019.
The schedule, unlike Monaco, is as normal with Thursday being the usual day for media activities and for the drivers to get their eye in with a track walk (if they want to!).
Then, on Friday, it's time for the two practice sessions where the drivers will need to quickly refamiliarise themselves with the monstrously long main straight and the unique challenge of the castle section.
Saturday will see the final practice session before the crucial qualifying hour, with the race held on Sunday afternoon.
RacingNews365.com will be on hand to cover all of the action and you can find our live blog HERE. We will also have exclusive interviews, news and analysis throughout the entire weekend in Azerbaijan.
