Two weeks on from the Monaco Grand Prix, Formula 1 continues its stay in Europe as the circus heads to Azerbaijan.

The Baku City Circuit has been a regular fixture on the calendar since it first hosted F1 in 2016, though there was no race held in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Each of the five Grands Prix at the track has featured a different winner, and it was Sergio Perez who was the last victor in Baku in 2021.

Can he repeat that success in 2022, or will teammate and championship leader Max Verstappen – who was forced to retire from last year's event after a tyre blowout – pose a challenge?

When is the 2022 Azerbaijan GP?

The 2022 Azerbaijan Grand Prix will be held across the weekend of 10-12 June.

There will be the usual format in place, with two practice sessions held on Friday, followed by FP3 and qualifying on Saturday, and the main event on Sunday.

How many laps is the Azerbaijan GP?

The race will take place over 51 laps of the 6.003-kilometre Baku City Circuit, with a maximum race time of two hours if there are any stoppages or delays.

What time does the Azerbaijan GP start?

Sunday's Azerbaijan Grand Prix will start at 15:00 local time (12:00 BST).

Below are the start times for the race for various time zones across the world.
