Baku is one of the rare city circuits in Formula 1 where streets remain open during peak hours of race week. In 2024, after the race, Baku returned to its normal rhythm at record speed, with 60% of the protective barriers removed and cleared within just 16 hours, fully restoring the city in a single day.
Thus, both the organization of the race and the daily convenience of city residents are ensured simultaneously.
