Eight races remain and Formula 1 2024 is getting close again. The struggling Red Bull team has to worry about the Azerbaijan GP: Are there problems here again? The training sessions today on Friday, September 13th (live: 11:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.) provide some initial insight. How did the competition between Ferrari and McLaren begin? This article contains all the information about training Friday in Baku: Who is broadcasting Formula 1 on TV and live stream today? Where are all the sessions taking place? The entire schedule.

There’s no question: Baku could once again be the setting for a big battle between numerous teams in Formula 1. Last but not least, the Azerbaijan GP is also Charles Leclerc’s favorite track.

Getting into the rhythm quickly is also extremely important in today’s training sessions in Baku, because the 6.003-kilometer-long street circuit offers no room for error. Leclerc can tell you all about that: he has already crashed here twice. Once in the famous castle passage in the middle section. It is the narrowest spot on the 2024 Formula 1 calendar.
