It should be noted that Baku is one of the rare city tracks in Formula 1 where roads are opened during peak hours even during the race week. In 2024, after the race, Baku returned to its previous rhythm at a record speed, and in just 16 hours, 60% of the protective barriers were dismantled and removed from the area, and the city was fully restored in one day.
Thus, both the organization of the race and the daily comfort of city residents are ensured in parallel.
