    If the parts are loose it stands to reason they might lose some. Maybe some F1 grade duct tape is needed.
    This should be an interesting race.

    That would be fun...but it's definitely not the only reason it's a shame they replaced those cobblestones with blacktop.

    Formula E races put a temporary blacktop surface over cobblestones that can be remove easily later. I wonder if they did something similar here.

    A bit of a scale reference and a caption from Merc: "four engineers wide"

    Better qualify on the pole. If not it's follow the leader.

    Those long straights give an opportunity for a pass at the end, better not have too much downforce tho or they'll run off and leave you down that straight.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that at some point she made a comment about not liking Ferrarris[emoji12]

    Growing pains at Baku.

    Pirelli says "90 percent" of tyres were cut by kerb bolts (motorsport.com)

    Based on what I saw in FP1 and FP2, I think there will be a lot of attrition in this race, either from contact with the walls or thru mechanical failure.

    I also think Mercedes will prevail again, and now that the Hamster has the championship in hand again, he's gonna be after it. But if Vettel gets another blazing start, the race is his unless his team strategist screws it up again.

    Should be a good race. Here's hoping Ricciardo beats Nico to turn one. :D
