The 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix brought drama and excitement to the Baku City Circuit, with Ferrari's superstar Charles Leclerc claiming pole position for the fourth consecutive time.

As fans eagerly await the race day action, one thing is certain: Baku never disappoints when it comes to high-stakes drama! The scenarios could change depending on tire strategies, pit stops, and any unforeseen incidents that could arise during the race. Buckle your seatbelts as the F1 world gears up for an electrifying showdown in Azerbaijan!

Did you know that the Azerbaijan Grand Prix first joined the Formula 1 calendar in 2016? It quickly became a fan favorite thanks to its picturesque scenery and unique street circuit layout. Also, Charles Leclerc’s streak of pole positions at this race puts him in the record books—only time will tell if he can convert it into a victory!
