Last year's race

Two high speed punctures caused worrying crashes, one of which took leader Verstappen late in the race. A red flag and a restart blunder handed the victory to Sergio Pérez

Ferrari quickest over 1 lap. Red Bull walks away with the win. Russell beating Hamilton again.

Mercedes will suffer from porpoising so hard on that long fast straight.

If Verstappen or a Ferrari win this, we will have 6 different winners in 6 editions on this track.
Well actually, we have that with every driver except Perez, Hamilton, Ricciardo or Bottas, but only Perez has a decent chance this year.

Mercedes will overcome all their problems and win this one easily by holding their pit stop until SC comes in

I too want to make a prediction based on nothing bar my fears about what I really don't want to happen

Congratulations Sebastien Vettel 2022 Baku Grand Prix Winner

(Seriously tho, aren't red bull likely to piss this with their top speed advantage? Throw in some hot weather and boom, it's curtains for Ferrari)

Red Bull 1-2 25 secs ahead of a Mercedes.

Ferrari will fuck up some way and end up 6th and one DNF.

How about they Force India themselves into the wall? Pretty good way to achieve that result.

Fifth street race already and it's only June...remember when there were only 3 of them in the whole calendar?
Well, at least Baku usually contains drama and excitement. Hopefully no tyre fiasco this year.

As this track don't have all that big need for aerodynamic help, Mercedes will probably just raise the ride height, if they managed to do it in Barcelona, this will be a piece of cake.

As far as I know, Ferrari managed to cut some of the gap they have to Red Bull on top speed.

Let's see why Bottas will be out of FP1/FP2 this time. It's been like a curse so far.
