    I spy some road markings on the track… I know it’s a petty little thing but I do like the road markings to be left on street circuits, gives them a grittier feel. Otherwise you just get these soul-less ‘urban circuits’ like Valencia and Sochi. And like Baku was last year.

      @unicron2002 I totally agree too, it just feels nice to have, and actually helps to give a sense of speed around the streets too, even if we don’t realise it.

      One thing I haven’t spotted is any “well done Baku” signs. Hopefully that was Bernie’s idea and an idea which isn’t returning.

    I would find it very funny if Force India and Renault would crash between pink and yellow buildings.

    Its always empty, does anyone actually live in Baku or are they all in prison camps?

    Probably in the minority here, but I love those Force India overalls.
