🗣 “I’m nervous about a sprint in Baku because you have not enough time to repair if you have major damage” As Baku prepares to host F1’s first street sprint race, teams have revealed their crash damage concerns ⬇️
Baku is the first F1 sprint event to be held on a street circuit, and the chances of accidents occurring have been ramped up by the decision to make the sprint a standalone event.
