Baku will race on Saturday: the F1 weekend starts on Thursday

The next Formula 1 Grand Prix will not follow the usual rhythm. In Baku, practice will take place on Thursday 24 September, FP3 and qualifying on Friday 25, and the race on Saturday 26 at 15:00 local time. The event was moved forward by one day at the request of the promoter and Azerbaijani authorities.\n\nSunday 27 September is Anım Günü, the national remembrance day for servicemen killed in the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War. For Grid Team, the consequence is simple: every prediction deadline arrives one day earlier than usual. The next F1 weekend starts Thursday and ends Saturday.
