Tilke.de highlights F1 Baku European Grand Prix
German www.tilke.de, the website of Tilke Engineers & Architects company, has posted an article about F1 Baku European Grand Prix.
The article reads: “We are absolutely thrilled about the project; it is a very challenging street circuit in terms of engineering and design.
The circuit thrives on Baku's very attractive urban atmosphere and its great combination of history and 21st century.
The historic center, the beautiful seaside promenade, the impressive government house - it is just a perfect scenery for a spectacular track.
The track layout itself provides some very unique features like the extreme narrow uphill section at the old town wall and an acceleration section of almost 2.2km along the promenade which creates a very high top speed.
Non-permanent F1 street circuit around the old town of Baku and along the sea side promenade to the Government House. The square opposite will host the paddock with its temporary structures for the pit building, team buildings, media and medical centre.”
